Rabbit manure.

[guest2012y]

I have seen it done and likewise smoked the results...it's okay.

For a few years, I used a cool method of bypassing my kitchen waste grinder so that I could save my waste an grind it into a slurry which I collected in a bucket and applied directly to trees and garden veggies.

would u want to go into a little more detail on how u did that? im guessing ur talking about a garbage disposal?

working in animal shelters I have a great source of it. I grab whats outside of the litterboxes. That way it has a lower chance of being soaked in urine. Don't use the 'mushy' ones. Use the small hard pellets. I let them dry out for 2-3 weeks, grind it up and top dress. fantastic stuff. If you have a worm bin and add the poop for the worms to eat, you'll have AAA+++++ fertilizer that can't be touched by any store bought stuff.
But!! as any fert, add small amounts at first to see how your plants take to it. different strains (and the different pheno's in a strain) have different nutritional requirements/tolerances.

dont rabbits eat there own shit a few times over? i knew someone who grew in basically only rabbit manure, compost and perlite. grew some great nugs too.

Yes they will eat there shit over to get nutrients out of it, it is very rich in nitrogen. I mixed alot of composted rabbit manure,500 pounds of Cow Manure, 500 pounds of top soil to 1000SQ FT of land, Tilled for 2 hours, Added in a 8-3-5 Fertilizer, 2 bags of Perite. Tilled again for a hour. I expect the soil to be super rich but will be letting it rest for a month before planting.

Depending on how you water, the perlite may tend to float. I've been using the oil absorbent sprinkled on top. It's a bit heavier. It works it's way down.
Make some pathways so you don't compact it all over again.
Sounds pretty good.

Yes the perlite is floating up, I added a good bit to the mix, so i have been collecting the excess the forms at the top and recycling it into pots.

I'm pretty sure I've read that it is a pretty hot manure but very good also I've never used it personally

anyone know for sure if the dried berries are low enough in N and high enough in P to be a worthwhile flowering fert?

rabbit manure is great i have used it many times before fresh and composted, fresh being a few months old. IMO it give good results put it in the bottom(ish) of your flowering pot and you have some nice "time release" nutes i remember pulling up the root ball of a harvested plant to see lots of bunny balls hanging from the roots...i also compost it and use it in my worm farm. before i throw it in any thing i rinse it ( not soak it) to get some of the ammonia out of it and then let it age in a pile for some time..........its great stuff, my thanks to you bugs bunny

Last year I transplanted one plant from a quart of potting soil to a 2 gallon pot with only fresh rabbit manure. The plant didn't thrive (read: grow much at all) for the next 2-3 weeks, but it didn't show any signs of getting burned either... after that I threw it away..

I've never used rabbit pellets, not having free access to 'em, but I'm sure they're good stuff.

Years ago I knew someone who did. They just took the litter & all out of the cages, scooped up the pellets from underneath, top dressed their large garden rather lightly, which accumulated over the season. Over the winter, they kept up with top dressing. In the spring, they tilled it all in. Worked great for them.

One thing I'm sure of is that raw chicken manure is extremely hot & will burn plants rather easily, so be warned about that.

I use rabbit poo. I put it in my compost pile and worm bin also. I grew a plant last year outside using only recycled paper bedding and worm poo. It didn't ever burn it, but it didn't grow like hydro. Rabbits urinate and poo out of different holes. So it should be good to go unless it is sitting in a tray in urine.

Here is my herd.
