human poo for plants a good thing?

Big balls · 04-23-2009, 01:46 PM

wierd thing to ask guys.

I got an outdoor potty with a big pile of human shit. Would it be worth growing a plant in this or is that just plain wrong?

drunken13astard · 04-23-2009, 02:09 PM

Well, depends, do you want your weed to taste like shit?

Big balls · 04-23-2009, 02:16 PM

Good one. I just wondered if it had been done before?

Bearsy · 04-23-2009, 02:25 PM

I really doubt the weed would taste like shit.

It's just like regular manure I think.

But you would want to mix it with dirt.

Big balls · 04-23-2009, 02:26 PM

50% human poo and 50% soil?

Bearsy · 04-23-2009, 05:58 PM

I would think more like 60/40 or even 70/30 soil to poo. But I've also never grown past a seedling, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

SpankyMcLankey · 04-23-2009, 06:00 PM

na that's pussy shit, 90/10 hooman/soil

Xil · 04-23-2009, 06:04 PM

im no expert but i think that you ont want to use human poo while its 'hot' as in not a bit decomposed.

check with someone who knows more about composing, but i think if you added it to a compost mix it would help it decay faster and make a really good soil mix (with some dirt and perlite or something for air)

al-Mu'akhkhir · 04-23-2009, 06:33 PM

man you guys are idiots, human feces is NOT suitable as a replacement for more common types of manure used. the same goes for cat shit, dog shit etc.

DO NOT USE HUMAN FECES TO GROW YOUR MARIJUANA.

Xil · 04-23-2009, 06:39 PM

Whats so bad about or feces? Is it our diet or something?

Yeah, horse and cow manure is so different than human shit.

It has something to do with how they digest their food, which is made up of grass, hay, and relatively simple grains.

We spread the horse's manure on the fields to replenish the nutrients in the soil. Lol, I just thought about how the grass that's digested and spread onto the fields, is the same grass that came from the fields.

to_hvp · 04-23-2009, 08:18 PM

intersting concept but i wouldny do it

Big balls · 04-23-2009, 08:22 PM

What if human poo is from a good veggie diet?

dubtrice · 04-23-2009, 08:38 PM

its probably worth the $5 to get some soil with bat guano

human shit doesn't sound like its worth the trouble

Kishar · 04-23-2009, 10:41 PM

dig a hole take a shit in it and throw a plant in there and see what happens.

i bet it dies within 10 days.

This is correct. If you used raw sewage it would stink. Also you`d want to worry about handling the weed (bacteria etc), not that the cell matter of the plants would be contaminated, rather that bacteria could get splashed onto the outside of plant by water or whatever, because bud is sticky it`s not as if you could wash it like a lettuce or a carrot before use.

However human shit will be rich in nutrients, if properly composted you could use it in a soil mix.
It`s probably going to be pretty hot in nutrients (depending on the diet of course) so I`m not sure what proportions you`d use in the soil mix, you certainly wouldn`t want to use it (or any other manure for that matter) neat.

I`d give it at least a year to compost personally.

You could also bake it in an oven but this would really stink.

SpankyMcLankey · 04-24-2009, 02:33 AM

for the lols

al-Mu'akhkhir · 04-24-2009, 02:37 AM

i think there might be too high a level of ammonia in human feces, but I might be totally off base... I think I may have heard that about pet feces (dogs, cats).

Humanure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

good luck with that shit bro!

farmergiles · 04-24-2009, 02:45 AM

Depending on the diet, health and lifestyle of the "donor" there could be a number of things in there you don`t really want anything to do with.

That`s why we condition our children to be scataphobes.
