According to a study from a group of environmental scientists at the University of Kuopio in Finland, human urine and wood ash make a reasonably potent tomato fertilizer, boosting plant growth and fruit yield dramatically over untreated plants and nearly keeping pace with conventional fertilizer. The research appears in the August 26 Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Yes I eat my tomatoes. Find a fireplace to clean out and the rest is free! Don't know about Coneheads?

Hey Cranker. Are you familiar with the old Cheech and Chong routine where they think it's dogshit? They touch it, smell it, taste it decide that it IS dogshit and are glad that they did'nt step in it.

I think he's implying that using shit is no different then using piss. But this piss fert sounds intresting, I might think of using it

Also if for some reason I was given the choice to either drink my own urine or some chemical fertilizer I would not opt to drink luminous chemicals.

As another suggestion Molasses is great for plants and so is tea (drinking tea)

Dude, urine is high in ammoniac nitrogen, and it's sterile. It will work as a fast acting high N nute. I have NO idea HOW you would dose it out. Coffee grounds are good, and high N also, but they are slow release.
If you're that broke, I'd forego a trip to Taco Bell or something and spring for a small bottle of MG or Peters. Get one thats high N. Surely to God you can afford that.

You can use pretty much anything organic as fertilizer, its just that it takes time for bacteria to break down stuff like grass clippings or ground coffee, thats why many people use urine, as nitrogen in it is pretty much ready to be absorbed, free and readily available. And you dont piss on your plants lol, you dilute it with water in a 10 or even 15 to 1 ratio from what I can remember.

Ya might wanna wait a couple days before you give it more. See how the plants do with that. That was pretty concentrated IMHO, but then, I'm treading water here too. I was thinking no more than half strength. Urine probably has the potential to be pretty hot I would think. I wouldn't worry about saving the remainder, I'm sure there is a good supply.
