  New soil

Jon, I've tilled in massive quantities of wood chips in my garden. I've been told by 2 or 3 people that decomposing wood chips draw nitrogen out of the soil and make it necessary to add nitrogen. I don't know. I've not used any chemicals of any kind in my garden in 6 years. But in addition to the wood chips, I had a lot of rabbit manure and cow manure to add also, so if the wood drew any out, I guess that put it back. About the only warning I'd have is to be careful about organic material that might have weed or grass seeds in it. The first year that I started this garden, I put two big round bales of hay in it and let the cattle feed there during the winter; big mistake, too much grass came up from the seeds in the hay. Oat or wheat straw is good, and you don't have the seeds.

CaseyR, I don't know a lot about the chemical makeup of the different types of manure. I've used a lot of cow manure, and when I was a kid, we used a lot of chicken manure, but I'm absolutely convinced that the BEST fertilizer is rabbit manure if you can find it.
