Ok, so I've put 5 yds of fairly fresh (all I could get was fresh) manure , 1/4 ton of seaweed, and about 15 yds (loose pile amount) of leaves finely shredded into my patch. Right now it's warm again but the cold, frozen ground is not too far off. If I were to till what I have so far in right now, is it ok to put additional manure and seaweed on top knowing that I won't be able to till it in until spring prep. The manure won't be aged much so I'm not sure if it's best to go with what I got and try to compost anything additional for spring or just throw it on top of whats tilled.

That sounds good to me. Till in what you can, then till in the rest in the spring. With fresh manure, I would not add too much after the ground freezes. -Bryan
