you can use egg shells, coffee grinds, corn syrup deluted in warm water, cow shit will work as a top coating and hard wood ash like from your fire place. these are all good things to use that you may either have around your house or that you can usually get for free.
the only thing you need to keep in mind is that the coffee grinds might bring up your ph, the corn syrup might attract ants, and the cow shit has to be rotted not fresh. alittle lime, ant protection and smelly flowers planted near by will solve those minor things.
use them all at once or each seperately it don't matter but just in moderation so you don't mess up your ph.
good luck with your grow!!!!

stinging nettle is a great source for N, just cut some up and put in water. after a couple of days, sift and keep the water, it's full of it

you can make a compost pile with normal household items. It takes a while for it to break down and be ready to be used on ur plants. put things like dry leavs,potatoes, coffe grounds, compost, worms, boiled rice or/and pasta,banana peals, shit like that.
