- Subject: [Market-farming] Using Ammoniated Straw
- Date: Wed, 19 May 2010 07:08:52 -0700 (PDT)
I am getting started on mulching my crops with straw this year. Last
year I didn't and that was a big mistake. I have two options for straw
this year. Really old decomposing straw bales or ammoniated straw
bales. The old straw is 45 minutes away at my parents house and the
ammoniated straw is less than 1/4 of a mile away. My neighbor has
extra bales and is wanting to get rid of them. He even offered to bring
them up with his tractor and put them where I need them. I am talking about big round bales of straw. I will probably use 4-6 bales this year The question is this, will the ammoniated bales "burn" my plants or is the nitrogen levels too low to worry about. My neighbor says his dad used the ground up straw for mulch and said it worked really great. I would really like to save time and money, but don't want to regret my decision. I will be mulching potatoes, squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, watermelons and canteloupe.
