It's INCREDIBLY 'hot'.
You have to compost it really well, and STILL be careful not to burn your plants.
And if you are growing indoors, there is of course the risk of introducing pests, and it smells foul... hahaha at least maybe the chicken plop stank will overpower the skunk stank, reducing yoru dependence upon carbon filters... :D
I think the bottom line is that chicken manure belongs in outdoor gardening applications.
Oh btw chickens are really funny. I hope to have a few when I get out of this silly town that has a no chicken bylaw!!! Nothing like a cheddar and pimiento pepper omlette made with fresh eggs... mmmmmm!!!
well i have a few mystery girls out in the woods and was thinking about just mixin up some poop just to see what it dose. as far as the omlet thing goes i eat atleast 8 eggs a day, its the best food ever you can make it somany different ways. ill just try it anyways on a plant n see how it grows with it
you would have to let it compost really well, ive seen where they are selling this now. its called cocka doodle doo, and the n-p-k numbers are in the thousands. they are advertising it for lawns and say that one or two applications a yr are enough.
WhAt?!:eek:Quote:

That's hilarious.
BUT the NPK is through the roof regardless.... I would not use chicken poops on my plants.
Thats all miracle-gro Organic plant food is.... Chicken manure and feather meal (7-1-2)
the npk for chicken poo isint always necessarily high.. i have a chicken emulsion fert called chick-a-poo, with an npk of 4-6-4.. alot easier than composting raw shit from nasty disease bags :D
I am not the brighest light bulb in the pack, but cheap I am
Pot math
1 know all the numbers , cause you can kill your plants ?-?-?=?
2 I wonder why some one would spend 4-5 bucks on pot fertilizers. X+Y=better crop
I always figured fertilizer were 1% of the cost of a crop
SO why go for the unknows and know you save $$$$$$$
Its better to have a fews pounds of bud,then burnt stems
Is chicken shit from a free range differnt from a chicken coup, even if the coup has 4 doors. Every body knows a coup has 2 doors. :thumbsup:
If the joke goes over your head stand up ;)
if you happen to have a chicken coop and a wood stove, ive read that scattering ashes on the floor creates some type of reaction that makes it easier to scrape up. also makes for a better compost. i read that somewhere in mother earth news.
hahahahahha:DQuote:
