I have been using hog manure side-dressed with corn but I am thinking of a new method of application. I was wondering if it will be possible to spray my corn plants with diluted liquid manure after about a month (after planting) will this kill the plant? by Shola Quire

In this situation dilution is key and will depend on the manure’s composition. Dribbling beside the row would be safer and likely more effective. One method is done by putting drops on the sprayer nozzles.
