After taking home the two and half bags of cheap cow manure fertilizer from UPLB, we immediately unloaded them and readied one of the sacks to be used on the next day.
The soil of one of the wall-mounted garden pots seem to have shrunk over time. The roots of the Mandevilla vines in the garden pot were already showing. So I thought this would be the best time to apply the newly purchased cow manure.

Cheap Cow Manure Direct from the Cow Pen
Every time we visit our daughter's university campus at UPLB, we always try to maximize our trip. Being avid gardeners, we would pick up free cow manure from the Animal Husbandry to be used as organic fertilizer.
We shoveled cow manure in a covered cow stable. Whether it's the rainy or the dry season wouldn't matter much because, for as long as the cow manure is dry, it will remain that way because the stable protects it from the rain.

Free Organic Fertilizer - Cow Manure Shoveling
I remember scooping up carabao droppings with a shovel by the roadside when I was young. Farmers then rode carabaos to the fields and these animals would poop just about anywhere. This was in my youth when carabao manure was the only fertilizer I used to feed a lone grapevine.
Sadly, I don't remember that grapevine bearing any substantial amount of fruits until it died!
With fertilizers, I still feel though that "organic" is the way to go. That's because it is cheap, if not free.
