I’m sure the deep dive into the bottomless pee pool of gardening isn’t over - many more ways to run some tests.So true! And we exhale CO2, so other than light, the human body is capable of providing nearly everything a plant needs to survive. This experiment really opened my eyes as to the benefits of urine. Ive also gotten quite a few therapeutic laughs out of itThanks for starting this thread dude!
Update :
As I lay here in the E.R. , wondering what I smoked ……
LOL … just fuckin wit ya.
This little pee princess has a definite Danky Schmoke - totally a creeper kind of high. Took me by surprise actually.
I smoked about two volcano bags and was chillin on the couch watching good ol Jerry Springer reruns and didn’t pay too much attention to the initial mellowness ……. Until I stood up.
Walking to the fridge became an adventure. It was like I got a head rush all at once.
Happy loopy. Gawd I love my pee.
Next , I just rolled an XL OCB joint for tonight as I lurk RIU
Tomorrow I will water bong some to compare.

. Who woulda ever thought taking a piss could be so productive?
I have read somewhere that that mixture can be very acidic.
That contradicts what I just read about biochar raising ph in this article.
gardening.org
Sorry I get alkaline and acidic swapped around sometimes lol. I think the point is it can cause pH swing so be mindful of that.That contradicts what I just read about biochar raising ph in this article.
But, maybe combined with diluted urine....? I am unsure.Biochar 101: How to Make and Use Biochar in Your Garden
Biochar is gaining in gardening popularity, for good reason. It can be difficult to source, but can easily be made as a DIY product.
Ok, yes thanks, something to consider for sure. I usually run a peat based mix, which I believe tends to wander more acidic, so maybe biochar would be good addition to counter that....?
Good info in that pdf. Thanks. Well I ordered some biochar a while ago, but I've never "charged" it and used it yet. Seems to have a few benefits. Supposedly, it can absorb heavy metals from soils, thus reducing their toxicity. Just saw an article posted the other day about elevated levels of heavy metals in pot smokers;
Perhaps would work, but i can guarantee that mixing in dolomite lime will raise the ph. And the best thing is that it has a neutral ph of rt around 7 so its easier to use safely. I add a cup to 5 gallons of my FFOF based mix. But, on this thread, i fully aupport trying urine for your experiment. BB started this thread with an eye towards demonstrating the sustainability and wonders of pee. Its worked pretty damned well for me. Without experimentation, no progress is made. Keep us up peedated
Yes, will have to read more in this thread, and maybe more on the www with regards to charging biochar with pee. I've read that compost, ewc, and different teas can be used for this purpose. I really can't see why not. I'll call it PEE-O-CHAR and market it to the masses! You have to admit, it's a golden idea.
It's sounding more like win, win, win with a well charged, and populated biochar. I knew there must have been some reason I bought a bag of the stuff. Just couldn't remember why, lol. It will be a little higher priority on my next soil mix grow.
all fucking took a piss on a bush , tree , fence line , grassy area , flower and all that shit grew.
