Terrific job Doug with your 691.5 and to Sierah for her 620. Well done, considering the blistering summer weather you guys had to contend with this last summer. Have a super 2007 season Kansas!

I'm sure that the subject has come up, but is there any difference between cattle and bison manure when used for pumpkin growing?

Crammed,
Good question. I don't know the answer. I imagine a lot has to do with feeding methods. I would think manure would have a significant difference, based on if the pooper was range fed(grass), or more grain fed.
