Do they work?
YES!
CowPots actually break down in 1 growing season!
How?
The nitrogen that is naturally in manure serves 2 purposes:
1. It kick starts the composting process allowing CowPots to break down once planted.
2. Nitrogen also attracts microorganisms in the soil to assist in the decomposition process.
