Lots of really great information ! I have been saving and using my urine for years . I feel bad if I have to flush it now lol . I did a lot of experiments with using urine . I grew a nice patch of corn just using urine a few years back . This year I gave one corn plant all my urine without adding any water I couldn't burn it . I did get a couple of massive ears lol . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !

Did you ferment it or use it right away?

@AaricHale 7 ай бұрын

@@Katgirl2024 you can use it right away just dilute it down with water 10 to 1. I can use it without dilution on corn in tassel .

Here in Australia, it's a tradition for guys to pee on their lemon tree to feed it. 😁 I actually only use it in compost, and then the finished compost fertilizes the garden.

I use it on the compost and it really helps the pile collapse quicker. It should help discourage the rats both by the fresh smell and increased speed of composting. I got a bunch of free sawdust and I used that to compost urine with oyster shell calcium and azomite. Great compost: huge tomato plants this year! Pee starts stinking really fast in the bottle; if you don't want to smell any odor, pee right into sawdust or wood pellets. I have tried putting oyster shell lime right into the pee bottle but it doesn't help with the smell at all. Urine is about 11-1-2. Wood ash will get you a little K and it is ph lowering. I make my own bonemeal by pressure cooking bones and then blenderize with water and pour the slurry on plants immediately or you could pour it into your urine and sawdust (or leaves) compost. Bonemeal is about 3-15-0. I would like to get free wood chips. Urine could really help eat through those and make nice compost.

What are the benefits of aging the urine?

@Ottomus1 11 ай бұрын

I age urine for 2 years, then used at a dilution rate of 1:5 for vegetable plants and 1:10 for potted full-size fruit trees.

Could you please share the results

A very concentrated liquid fertilizer. All of the aldehydes are broken down and equalibrated to a non odiferous liquid. But I add limestone and potash to it also. Without the lime and potash the liquid is not overly odiferous. As far as a fertilizer far superior to commercial fertilizers.

I watered my pumpkins, tomatoes and corn with only dikuted urine this summer. The plants were super healthy . Didn't ferment, just used urine from the previous 24 hours. I also top dressed occasionally with wood ash.

How often do you fertilize. Once a week, once every two weeks?

Hey, what happened to my comment about using varied carbon sources, for turning urea into amino acids instead of ammonia - to remove the horrible smell? Hopefully you are on the case? It totally can be done, and you are definitely the man for the job

At about 20:14, you mentioned “removing phosphorus into the liquid.” Did you mean “calcium”? Or is this extracting both?

So peeing in a lake should actually be helpful to aquatic plants then ?

Do tomatoes taste pithy? I mean, when you pith on them, does it make them taste pithy?

@ZenGardenOasis. 3 ай бұрын

Quite pithy. 🚽😄

You're taking the pith!

Interesting, yes I assumed it would work poorly on coco, as it’s organic. I use it as a supplement at about 10-1 water-urine with 1/4 strength commercial chemical fertilizer and seaweed, and believe it or not top water the whole plant and eat them. Nothing but flush green at that low dose, and of course it rains too cleaning the leaves, cheers. Edit: and I use fresh, a week old max.
