I have a friend who bought a house and established a sizable garden spot. Once he established an area, he added a dump truck load of gin trash, worked it in well and he has had an awesome garden ever since. That was several years ago and I think he has added more gin trash a couple of times since then.

Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

Cotton seed meal is a FINE fertilizer...about the only downside to using mill trash might be an occasional uncrushed seed that comes up as an undesirable weed in the garden.

I would think just put it out over the area, and till it all in...as it composts, it'll improve the soil for the years to come, too, even if your rows end up slightly offset from where they are this year.

My friend tilled it in his entire garden.

This would be more like all the stuff leftover after the cotton is ginned and the seed (or most of it) removed. A little cotton fiber and a little seed meal, bolls, stems, leaves, weeds, etc...it gets pretty chopped up in the ginning process, and would make an excellent addition of organic matter to soil.

til you get you some SPiny amarynth....aka pigweed seed...don't even ask how i know... We've got 1000's of acres of pastureland infested with that around here. It's the devil. In good soil, under good conditions, one plant can produce 250,000 seeds.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
