Help me go Vegan

So I'm wanting to change up my super soil mix a little bit, change out a few meals to get a more vegan friendly mix.

I'd like to replace the blood meal, bone meal, and bat guano.

I know I can replace the blood meal with cotton seed meal, no too sure about the others at this point.

Anyone have any advice?

Comfrey is something you could use. It is dense with nitrogen and has other beneficial nutrients as well. Growing a patch of comfrey is easy and makes your grow that much more self-sufficient!

In addition, Micronized soft rock phosphate can be used as a high phosphorous and high calcium soil amendment. Look into the addition of Greensand as well, it is a great source of potassium and helps with maintaining good soil consistency.

All of these are great replacements and each of them have even more benefits that you can look into!
 
Some greensands are as high as 7% potassium and 20% iron oxide(fe02) with up to 30 other elements,If you use that with some azomite or other brand glacial rock dust you add so many elements/minerals that are usual missing from soils.

Something else to look into is neem seed meal.

Also,I wouldn't completely stop using bat guano's,I never use it directly in my soil but it is really good when used in compost teas.
If you start seeing a problem such as yellowing leaves during flower period,just use a high N guano in a AACT and kick that problem right in the behind
