Household Items to Add Nitrogen to Plants

Household items that add nitrogen to plants are primarily vegetable and fruit scraps added to soil after composting. Coffee grounds are a good source of kitchen waste rich in nitrogen. Gray water from cooked vegetables and fish tanks is also useful. The common household cleaner ammonia is also...

My question with coffee grounds is can it be fresh ground coffee or does it have to be already cycled coffee? Doesnt seem like it would make a difference but also dont want to harm my plants anymore than they are already harmed. Lol
 
I would be wary of peeing on my plants too but it’s a thing and the coffee grounds I would think would be used first as that’s how most nutrients are released and become available but don’t quote me on that.

i never piss on them either but theoratically you could dilute your piss 1/50-1/100 with water and do a fast acting piss serum :)

Use your phone and Amazon and order fish fertilizer or something! You can find and use stuff around the house but you’ll never know the true NPK value of it. If your not in a time constraint Amazon is the way to go if you can’t wait. My next move would be google nearest hydro shop. Aside from that I wouldn’t use your household scraps. I damn sure wouldn’t piss or dilute and piss on them. Now dont get me wrong. Some people use all their scraps and even piss. But they been doing it for years and usually have their private little recipe for it. Maybe they will show up to guide you where your trying to go if your truly into that organic vibe.
Think of the time and money you got invested in your plants. ( time is always money unless it’s your time. Maybe it’s nothing. Some people gamble different I guess. Good luck
 
What about manganese deficiency? I know for sure i have nitrogen lacking but there are little brown spots thinking manganese as well.
 
local "black gold" can be nice as a top dress
it is usually manure (horse, chicken and or cow) ,grass clippings, leaves and sticks that compost in a pile and is rich in nitrogen
