Default Making my own fertilizer

Hi. I'm new to rec.gardens. Lately, I have been lurking and reading
many of your posts with keen interest and have finally decided to jump
in and ask a question to all of you seasoned gardeners out there. Is
it considered safe to use my own feces for fertilizer?



Yep. It has been used for thousands of years, and still is. The
main safety issue is about different people contributing, when
some individuals have infections/parasites. You need a long
time-frame, and, preferably, hot-composting, with the right
proportions of ingredients, and the right total volume.

I recommend the Humanure Handbook:

PS- Will Miracle Grow do anything to make my penis grow? I can apply
it in the shower.


if you took your hand off it long enough you may be surprised what happens.

if/when the bird flu comes as a pandemic and if the sewerage/reticulated
water goes down you will need to consider this question seriously.

old bog seat on a 10l paint pail and load it with composted saw dust, straw
or even soil if nothing else is at hand.
