Can dog urine be used as fertilizer?

Dog urine as fertilizer

Dog urine can be used as fertilizer, but do not use it directly, otherwise it will easily cause a small part of the alkaline concentration to be too high, making the plants unable to adapt and causing them to wither. Under normal use, it can improve the fertility of the soil and make the soil more suitable for plant growth.

Dog urine can be used as flower fertilizer to a certain extent, but it needs to be fermented to reduce the concentration of its alkaline components and make the inorganic components more evenly distributed. It can be used as fertilizer for flowers and is generally suitable for use when cultivating flowers that prefer alkaline soil.

How to make fertilizer from dog urine

1. Collect raw materials

The amount of dog urine is usually very small at one time. If it is directly fermented, it will inevitably be counterproductive and the final amount of fertilizer produced will not be too high, so it needs to be collected and processed.

2. Fermented urine

When you have collected a large amount of dog urine, add a certain amount of water to it, put it in a sealed container and expose it to the sun. After about half a month, you can get alkaline inorganic fertilizer.

Key points for using dog urine fertilizer

1. Alkaline application

Dog urine fertilizer is an alkaline substance. If the plant grown in the soil is suitable for growing in acidic soil, do not apply this fertilizer to avoid harming the plant.

2. Deep burial treatment

After the dog urine fertilizer is fermented, it will produce a lot of odor, which is unacceptable whether it is applied to the soil surface or watered. It is best to dig a deep pit in the soil, then mix the fertilizer in, and then fill it with soil.
