Looks like get Penningtons or Black Kow without dropping a fortune.. I will try WBS and aged composted cow manure... I still have some WBS i used for last jar run and it worked.
penningtons has cracked corn too doesn't it? i think what i got is the same pretty much.
once you remove the corn and sunflower it is mostly millet and safflower. I think i will just remove the sunflower and leave the cracked corn.. its a lot of work trying to seperate the corn and it seems impossible to find bird seed without it.
i have access to aged composted cow manure..
i just refuse to drop 50 bucks for the bird seed and like 30 bucks for the manure when I know i could get them both for under 10 bucks.
What do you do to prep your manure?
do you do the 1/4 inch verm, 1/2 inch manure. then mix the colonized WBS with the manure.. top with a layer of vermiculite 1/4".
do you soak your vermiculite in water first or leave it dry?
