My horse manure comes straight from the horse's patoot to my orchids. Never had any problems with burning, rotting, etc. *so* *long* *as* *I* *can* *keep* *from* *watering* too soon.
Horse manure has no smell! Only downside: grass and oat seeds sprouting.
100% horse manure, fresh, is the perfect potting medium for cymbidiums, too.

p.s. IMO, sphagnum is the embodiment of evil, even worse than kittens. Toxic, disgusting stuff, especially in an area of acid rain and alkaline tap water.
