There are about a hundred potted perennials out on my front lawn right now as the latest wintry mix hits our area, and someone dropped off a huge box of cell trays and small pots to us yesterday. Some of them will go to our local library for their gardeners workshops and to prep for their annual plant sale fundraiser, some will go to the Master Gardeners program for their spring fundraiser, and I will attempt to find space for what we end up keeping.

What’s growing on with you all?

    Diluted urine would likely be okay, lots of nitrogen and a decent source of trace elements to boot. It’s definitely been a boon in some of our heavily wood chipped gardens

      Nice, any thoughts about fertilizing fava beans in particular? I have heard that nitrogen fertilizers cause poor yields for legumes. Maybe it’s poor yields either way at this point, so I might as well try 😅

        Phosphorus is what you really want for better fruit set, and the normal range present in urine is 68-874mg/g in males and 56-846mg/g in females, so you’ll be supporting that aspect of their development as well.
