Thanks you for the feedback and info. I have been reading online for about a week about cotton burr compost as it was recommended by the local nursery I frequent. I have read about all of the chemicals used in cotton production in the south and that concerns me. I have also read very little chemicals are used in cotton production in NW Texas and it is the good stuff to use.
I also grow in containers with ProMix and using the previous years mix in the garden, mainly focusing it in the planting rows. I have about 3 bails worth from last year to apply this year. There is also a lot of mushroom compost available locally, but the nursery people said the cotton burr compost would work better at breaking up the clay. I am really not sure of what I am going to do, but I need to do something this year. I really appreciate your input into this. No till worked great for me for several years, but last year was very disappointing.
