Straw bales again

Someone on our allotment who was keen to get hold of straw has placed straw all around his greenhouse as a mulch. He’s going to add some ammonium sulphate and then some more straw.
This site also mentions this method – it’s to encourage the straw to rot down.
Using urine on them will help them break down quicker too – the urine contains plenty of nitrogen which works with the carbon in the straw to break it down.
