put down your pipe you hippy! I'm kidding man, but i'm lost.
what exactly are you saying/asking?
And cheap grows are easy...
craigslist for old ballasts, used bulbs.
I think a couple spaces and commas were needed but i'm gathering that you are asking if you can do a full grow with just manures?
absolutely.
not ideal but easily achieved.
but you still need aeration and peat or coco as the backing of it all.
chicken manure needs to be composted first, cow manure is ok but only if it's old, fresh stuff needs composting also.
edit--
I see now after re-reading your post, you are saying ADDING it to your old soil?
hell yea man, in fact oftentimes a properly assembled organic soil is good for two or three runs, depending on how rootbound the previous plant got.
and KEEP those rootballs in there, they are a concentration of nutrients, akin to how a dynamic accumulator works like dandelions etc.

collect your materials from what you eat. since youd be dead if you didnt eat and in turn wouldnt need any bud. so, you're broke. i dont buy squat anymore except for a pint of bacteria. then culture the bacteria throughout the year. http://rollitup.org/t/spring-flowers-fkg-indoor-outdoor.888371/page-2#post-12268715
one plant has gotten frost damage a few weeks ago. not too important since this isn't a cash crop. this grow is using fermented food scraps. plenty of sources online on how to do that and cost like 7-14$ a year (total) if you're smart.

Probably fine. Iv composted chickens. However, i use the crap out of probiotics in my garden, sooooo the whole pathogenic bacteria cultures pretty much starve out or leave the site.

Shiiiiiiit take the bones too. Wear gloves and a mask, but umm smash them with a hammer haha.

Or roast them and steep the charred bones in vinegar for a week. Kilo of bone to a liter of vinegar. Dilute 1:100 when ready.

Good phosphorus and calcium.

Definitely would.

Mixing this stuff with equal parts mollasses into some water at a 1:100 ratio will over throw the pathogens.

The main bottle can be extended by using 2tsp EM1 and 2tsp agricultural grade molasses. Put it in a liter of nonchlorinated water and seal it in a plastic air tight bottle. Burp the cap in 3-4 days. It's ready to use in 7 days and last 3-4 months. Catch is you cant culture off the cultured bottle.

I think i posted a link earlier on more recipes using this stuff.
