source ------------N P K ----------------------comments
Rabbit manure- 2.4 1.4 0.6 Most concentrated of animal manures in fresh form.
Cow manure (dairy)- 0.6 0.2 0.5 Often contains weed seeds, should be hot omposted.
Steer manure- 0.7 0.3 0.4 Often contains weed seeds, should be hot composted if fresh.
Chicken manure- 1.1 0.8 0.5 Fast acting, breaks down quickest of all manures.
Use carefully, may burn. Also, stinks like hell - composting definitely recommended.
Horse manure- 0.7 0.3 0.6 Medium breakdown time.
Duck manure- 0.6 1.4 0.5 .
Sheep manure- 0.7 0.3 0.9 .
Worm castings- 0.5 0.5 0.3 50% organic material plus 11 trace minerals. Great for seedlings, will not burn.
Is a form of compost, so doesn't need composting.
Desert Bat Guano- 8 4 1 Also contains trace elements. Fast-acting, mix in soil or as tea (1 C guano to 5 gal. water).
Cave Bat Guano- 3 10 1 .
Fossilized Seabird Guano- 1 10 1 Slow release over 3 to 12 weeks, best used as an addition to potting mix.
Peruvian Seabird Guano- (pelletized) 12 12 2.5 Legendary fertilizer of the Incas. Use in soil as a long lasting fertilizer, or make into tea (1 tsp pellets to 1 gallon water).
, but i wont use anymore of it in the future - aluminum is pretty harmful i think. other ingredients i have are kelp meal, bokashi bran, pumice, endo mycorrhizae, and neem seed meal
