Ok so heres the skinny. I have unlimited amounts of cow poo from one of my dudes that has cows. Last year I just used some fox farm fert and that was it. It grew pretty nice, but I wana do better this year. Ill just be using bag seed from good merch and some nugget seeds. My question is can I just get a bunch of the poo and mix it in with the narual soil? My friend said to mix it with water first or it will burn the plant. I plan on planting maybe 10 plants and use some pet moss, sand , dolomite, and maybe the cow fert. I can get the poo for free. Any responses would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
 
IMO Get the oldest cow poo that you san find the bottom of the pile he dumps the stall cleanings at will be best. It should have decomposed to a good rick black with a real earthy smell, if it smells like poo it is to hot or rich and will hurt more than help your plants
 
Alrite.cool cool! Ill go for the older lookin turds. Just mix em in with the soil then? Also there is a compost pile that I have access to. The only thing that bothers me is that it had a dead pig and cow and some chickens in it. Not sure about this one. Any help?
 
why do so many people try using different poos?
why not just use your own :rofl:
 
I've smelled it before but I've never used it for anything :)

Chicken poo works good as well huh? Interesting. Chicken poo, worm poo, cow poo, it all works I guess :).

Hey my mom used to say that every human being on the planet has tasted their own poo before. I couldn't remember trying it, but she swears I did.:D
 
All joking aside, human, dog and cat poo have pathogens in them and are to be avoided. Chicken, horse and cow poo are too hot when fresh for any plants. They will burn/ kill them and must be composted before using around tender plants. Rabbit,and goat poo are okay to use fresh or composted. My fave poo right now is rabbit. the red wiggler worms will cross county lines to get to your poo pile. I think it is a combination of the alfalfa in the pellet food they eat mixed in with cedar shavings from the cages or stalls. There can be lots of weeds in cow and horse manure, so composting it in a hot pile will kill off most of them. If you are going to play in poo, be informed and be safe.
 
Manure... An interesting fact...

In the 16th and 17th centuries, everything had to be transported by ship.
Commercial fertilizer had not yet been invented, so large shipments of manure
were common.

It was shipped dry, because in dry form it weighed a lot less. But when water (at sea) hit it, it not only became heavier, the process of fermentation began. A byproduct of fermentation is methane gas. You can probably figure out what happened next.
Methane began to build up below decks and the first time someone came below at night
with a lantern, BOOOOM!

Several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was determined just what was
happening

After that, the bundles of manure were always stamped with the term ' Ship High In Transit ' on them, which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane.

Thus evolved the term ' S.H.I.T ' , (Ship High In Transit) which has come down through the centuries and is in use to this very day.

You probably did not know the true history of this word. Neither did I.

I had always thought it was a golf term. :)
