yeah, if you haven't added anything to it other than manure or organic material, i would go ahead and put down some (5lbs./100 sq. ft.) 10-10-10 granular, and like
2 lbs./100 sq.ft. of 14-14-14 Osmocote...that's sorta what i put on my patches in the spring, and manure was added in the fall. i'm hoping someone else will add to this, or give
you better advice, at least until i break the world record!

Ditto. The soil is like a battery in some ways. Now it's time to recharge.
