added some manure on top of soil....add nutes?

[budblower10]

today i put about an inch layer of manure in all of my containers, i think it said dehydrated manure but either way its manure. i put it around inside the 5 gallon buckets and lil 8" pots and i then added some crushed leaves and some debri over it to camo it a lil more and to give sort of a mulch effect. does adding the manure seem like it will put some nutes into the existing potting soil? it says great organic fertilizer, so i think it should work. my plants are growing slowly so im hoping this will give it a lil more added natural nutrients and maybe a growth boost. any critism or comments are well appreciated, thanks. p.s....was adding the crushed leaves on the very top of the soil + manure a good idea?

I add horse manure to my growing mix. The only manure I can find here.

I also add liquid ferts, my own Russian comfrey based fert, and BioCanna if I need to supplement that.
