urine charge


I just stumbled across this post about using diluted human urine as fertilizer. Apparently with our excessive western diets urine is high in protein and nutrient rich. There seems to be a whole little counter-culture that uses human waste as fertilizer.

I am experimenting with ways to add nutrients to my community garden plot- I'm mixing in seaweed for the winter and have considered cover crops. I'm trying to stay open, but I think I'll have to do a little more research and allow some processing time before I consider this method. {via culiblog }
