I freaked when I saw the pellet mushy mess that was everywhere. I had a mess in the yard for days and days til the pellets all broke down good and got absorbed. Rabbits came and enjoyed the pellets though.

If you go no till, maybe make a tea from the pellets and water the ground good with it.
I was reading up on that.While I don't have a tiller I do turn the ground over with a garden fork when I put the cotton seed meal out.I was going to do the same with the pellets.I'm going to see about the alfalfa meal,I just thought the pellets would be dust free.
