ive tried the piss method before on veg stage plants its just not effective like a FF especially when i got probably the next ten years worth stored away from the outta season sales goin on.

i just dont really like the idea of pee food tbh

and i didnt see any pictures of the plant at first i went back and seen there was links but yea i'd say she has a N problem, id def do the foilar spray and maybe some plant food water souluble as a soil drench for later because its 3-1-2 plus your bloom ferts she should spring back

I've had a different experience than you with personal results. Seen a whole plant's foliage turn a shade of green after a pee-feed. But that's what counts isn't it? All the studies in the world can be unconvincing when it comes to what you have experienced yourself.

That's a perfectly good reason. Logically, pee has no 'yuck' effect on the plant, but if you just don't like the idea of it, then I don't blame you. Dead fish liquid or sheep shit might have the same gross out effect on someone else. I just wouldnt use that as a basis to tell someone else how to care for their plants. It's a personal emotional decision - not one backed by logic.

Cheers

For the people who are denying piss as a source of nitrogen need to do some more research before posting.

If you dilute it even as a 1:1 (which is pretty high) I'd go more like 1:4, you will supply the plant with plenty of natural nitrogen.

AGAIN!!! ******UREA NITRATE******

Yep. Go the urine route. Good for the earth, food for your soil, and as cheap as it gets.

Take one good pee in a 2 gallon watering can of water. Throw in a pinch of wood ashes if you have them. Optional: Add a couple tablespoons of epsom salts (because theyre great in moderation), give it a good stir and then apply slowly to damp soil. Repeat for next watering too. Your plants will green right up.

It works. Urine has been shown in multiple studies to be an effective fertilizer with nitrogen that is quickly and readily available for uptake and use.

And it's sterile too (unless it sits around)
Pee is 11-2-1, just about the perfect veg food. Almost the exact same as blood meal, but free.

I start out on small plants with one cup per five gallons of water. As the plant grows, I go up to four cups per five gallons. I also use a small amount of bought ferts, but very little. You have to pee, and you have to feed your plants. It works out good for me.

The 3 sour fruit trees get pissed in on the regular, they love it. Sometimes a bit in the 3 gallon water jug when feeding the garden, not often, but certainly works, and if you arent intaking all sorts of nasty shit yourself theres fuckall wrong with it.

At my river camp I used to pee at the base of a small oak tree. It's been 12 years since I camped down there, but that tree is easily twice as tall as the other oaks it's same age.
