we are planning to apply compost this fall:

a) should it go on before the cover crop is seeded (oats and rye) or once the cover is established?

b) how much to apply per acre as a "tonic" (no serious deficiencies known, just want to boost the biology)

c) our supplier steam-sterilizes the mushroom compost--no weed seeds, but is it "dead"?

Thanks,

Scott
