make sure it compost for a few months before you use it. it's to hot to use straight. some really good threads in the organics section talking about differnt shit.
The NPK of rabbit manure is 2.4/1.4/0.6.

Rabbit manure is extremely mild and can be used almost immediately. However, I agree that any manure should be composted before use.

Good luck and good growing.

Dude, it was old, already. Ground to hard to dig, so I built up 10 plus inches of pure Rabbit, Cut the bottom out of the containers, planted with the Rabbit, double had-fulls of worms & worm dirt from the worm farm, good potting siol mixture, with 40 lbs. of greensand on the native ground, washed in with cow tea, cornmeal, molasses, seaweed & some other shit. Now I just pour water in the containers, and around, every 2 days. Alway wash the urine out of the Rabbit shit first, then use. Worms love it. I also put store-bought fungi around the root system. The Ladies are growing at an amazing rate. They are bitching about wanting more molasses & seaweed. Later Dude.

i just bought a bunch of chickens for the eggs and poop. i've been using my own compost in the vegtable garden forever, thought it was time to spice it up with chicken poop.

yeah i havent done alot of research on the tea but i heard that boiling it for a very short period will reduce the loss of nutes and still kills all bacteria, any adivce on how to make a great tea would be appreciated and get +rep. i havent started using it yet will be a coupe weeks before i begin my grow. i am going to ignore anyones comments on how if i use rabbit poop than my grow will suckand all of this bs because as i have said over and over this is purely experimental and for my own benefit as i have a rabbit and want to determine how the effects of this essentially free fertilizer will help my grow... if it sucks at least i learned that i shouldnt use it, dont be a hater cuz you are biased towards certain things... at least i am willing to put myself and my grow out there in order to better the science of growing and learning... and thank you to everyone else who is civil and putting some good posts and ideas out here for us all!

i would add a cup to a gallon of water and let it sit for a day or 2. the bacteria is a good thing, i don't think you want to boil it and kill it?

DO NOT boil nothing, do not micro nothing, do not use that shit-human drinking water, tap or bottled. It's all BS. If you must, let it breath over night. I use rain water. My tallest Ladies is 7' now, 1 &1/2 inch per day, just topped (fim'ed) yesterday, about 40 branches, just at pre-flower. 40 will get you 80 (buds). Will be up & running, on-line in 2 weeks. I will order seeds in Nov., start the germ shit, then start the underground watering systems, etc. I want my water reserve built to look like a deer stand. We will review all the techniques, starting in Nov. I think I'm close to where I wanted to be. MKAY 420, I'm impressed with the attitude, you will go far. If you can get into my old post/threads, there is some good info, soil, etc. Later Dudes.

Go ahead, I advised you not too. Your descion at the end of the day.

Take a look at my sig, you will see, I don't grow rubbish I grow dank.

I'm out.
Obviously you haven't done your homework. You are trying to discourage the use of one of the best ferts available. Before you go posting something as fact, try seeing if it's actually true or not. Maybe you oughtta stick to the pre-mixed "grow in a bottle" kinda nutes. The nute companies have done all the work for you so you don't even have to think. You do this...you'll get this. Simple.
Rabbit poo is NOT HOT like you think. ANY google search will lead you directly to that info.
It can be put directly into the soil as soon as it's pooped out. It can be used as a topdressing,
It can be composted if you want, or it can be fed to the worms for the penultimate in EWC!!!

The LAST thing you wanna do is to kill off the beneficial bacteria found in the poop. The colony of beneficial bacterias and the mycorrhizal fungi are what makes organics work!!! I aint no organics guru like some out there, but it's THOSE GURUS I listen to. They have links in their sigs showing their grows also, and son of a gun if I don't see great buds there, too!! I got a whole hard drive of pics of dank bud I've grown, and I'm STILL here learning. Take a hint.
There is SO much misinformation flying around cyberspace, it's extremely irresponsible to throw more out there to further confuse any potential newbie growers out there.

Rabbit poop rocks!!

BTW, you aint the ONLY one who can grow dank. Most folks here either grow dank, or are on the road to doing so. It's the reason we do this. Who in their right mind would grow schwag on purpose?
This is a journey of sorts, and the journey is the learning. If we ever arrive at the destination, it's over.

I wouldn't tbh...
bit unhygenic and dont want the groom smelling of rabbit shit or rabbit hutch.

Buy bat guano, no smell, cheap, organic and does the job.


You've never had a rabbit, have you?

As for Bat Guano, it's ANYTHING but cheap, and you DEFINITELY don't wanna be smelling it if it's airborn:
http://caving.suite101.com/article.cfm/histoplasmosis_and_mexican_caves

"Histoplasmosis is an infection caused by inhaling spores from a fungus called Histoplasma capsulatum. This fungus prospers in bird or bat guano and therefore, in the USA, the disease is associated with chicken coops and caves"

even so,

1.
it's not hygenic for buds your gonna smoke

What is?

2.
Little bits of rabbit shit which may not smell, will soon start to smell as it will take for ever to break down in soil.

Again, ignorance speaking. Nothing could be further from the truth. Those "unhygienic"bacteria will break it down in no time.

3) Bat Guano is proven to be better and also cheap as chips.

And again, Unless you have a bat cave on your land, bat shit is NOT cheap. It's expensive as HELL. Yes, it's a great feed for the girls, no doubt about it, but BETTER than bunny poop? NOT! I'd love to see the study that proves that. And Bat Shit can KILL youwithout taking proper precautions like wearing a dust mask.

4) Bacteria thrive of nice warm, humid sweaty location and will breed rapidly. FACT.

Thats what you want to happen. Bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi are the basis for organic gardening. Without them nothing happens.
This is the kind of bud you will get if you don't use rabbit shit.


And this is what you can expect to get with rabbit poop:




These are my last grow, a JHxViking cross by Skunkmeister in the UK.

I couldn't have put it better S. Texas!!
Hang in there MKAY, it'll come. And do not be afraid of a little bunny poop.

I kinda wonder if MJ123 has ever used, say, Fish Emulsion, or Kelp? Talk about a foul stench. you could mask the smell of a rotting corpse with fish emulsion, and folks use THAT all the time. (Except me, of course. My wife has laid down the law..."No stinky shit indoors.")

lol! i thought this thread died.... unfortunately my bunny recently died so i will no longer be able to use his poop for my plants. he had some complications after his neutering surgery and passed away about a week ago. i do appreciate yall backing me up with the bunny pellets as fert though, thank you for the great info and i will be sure to use the rabbit poop if i decide to get another bunny when i am done mourning jerry.

Anyone who knows ANYTHING at all about horticulture would never bad mouth the Bunny Poop. It's inarguable.
Yet another added benefit (one that is not found in guano) is that captive bunny's eat alfalfa almost exclusively, which contains triacontinol, a beneficial plant growth hormone.

I'm trying to find either a rabbit, guinea pig or a chinchilla breeder (Almost identical poop wise) to get as much poop as possible.

The shit is truly amazing. Put a couple of cups of poo in a nylon sock and steep it in a 5 gal bucket for a day or so (some say as many as 3) for a great "tea" for watering in.

The holy grail would be EWC from bunny poo!!!

I may have been over the top there, and much apologies to the rest of the forum, but I stand by it in principle.

Posting an opinion is one thing, posting rubbish as fact is quite another.

As a newbie grower, I found SO MUCH conflicting info to sort out. Some or most of it valid, but that in and of itself was almost overwhelming. Thats not even considering all the info based on what someone read, or was told by someone else, and not the results of personal experience.

When you state as fact drivel like "rabbit poo will burn" or "Guano is proven superior and safer" you not only demonstrate your lack of basic organic knowledge, you may very well sway some newbie not to try that ample supply of "free" nutes available.

Then to "prove" your knowledge, we're to look at pics. Pics I have in abundance. Most are mine, some not. I aint saying or accusing, just think about it. What do pics prove other than it's a pic of a nice bud or plant? It certainly doesn't prove the grower or it's lineage.

Just try doing a bit of research before you start posting "FACTS". People come here to learn. There is a certain level of responsibility involved in posting things that could possibly be detrimental, or actually harm anothers crop as a result of following bad info. Sure, it's ultimately up to the individual, but when someone comes on here, sees a post by an ostensibly experienced grower, how would YOU respond?

I read what folks post. I then follow the posts of those who I feel know whats up. If the info continues to be valid, then THAT person knows his/her shit. No pics to look at, just good knowledge to retain and apply.

Now following your posts is a real treat. The comments section of your profile speaks volumes.

PS, it took me 50 years to achieve this state of assholiness. Thank you. It would appear that I have arrived!!

this may be the stupidest thing i have ever heard... you dont know what the word respect means.... nobody here gives a flying fuck about "your" plants or your pictures for that matter. the people that are here want to discuss what kind of benefits rabbit poo may provide and to educate some a little bit...

obivously you are the one that is jealous because you havent come up with ideas of developing your own nutrients and feel shamed that you actually buy your bottled nutes. this is quite apparent by how you keep mentioning this fact without anyone caring where you get your nutes from.

dont be a hater just because you are not capable of doing things the way others may be capable of doing them. All this does is make you look like an ignorant fool. if you kept an open mind and listened to people instead of jsut assuming that you know all and are the best cultivater of marijuana you might be able to improve your skills or at least gain an alternate view of the way some things are done that can help you come to your own conclusions about how you could better they way you grow. if you dont have the capacity to learn from people you shouldnt be allowed to open your mouth.

if you would go the fuck away and let everyone that knows how to respect one another continue a discussion that would be fantastic.

i doubt however you will do this, again proving my point that you are an ignorant fool.

well actually if you do a little bit of reading rabbit poop is not a strong smelling manure and has quite a bit more N than most sea bird guano.
i know the powders themselves don't have much of a smell ha ha until you put it in a stock tank and let it brew!
But i suppose that's not the case with every one.
Not to mention its kinda free.
I've been mixing UN composted rabbit droppings in my soil for years.
This is something my grandma always did as my grandpa owned a rabbit farm.
The main thing i agree with is the urine factor but it has not much to do with the ph.
The urine will burn the tender roots when brewed because of it's ammonia content. So when you go to make your tea or before adding to soil let it dry to the touch the ammonia has evaporated at that point. Works well for me!

Hahaha @ Maryjane calling those airy little buds, "dank"! Looks like a ton of leaf material still on those buds just to bulk up the size too. LOL!
