Well, I'm up to no good again and finally trying something that videoman was proding me on for some time now: Growing weed with nothing else then soil, water and RABBIT DROPINGS.
so, i never tried this out before, but my tomatoes growing like crazy on the same mix so why not sacrificing some clones, got more then enough right now, and finally try it

i started with some 20%perlite soil that i had already mixed for the rest of the clones, the the start mix is 20% perlite, about 10% droppings and 70% 1st grade peat soil, all measured by volume. i started with that little volume in droppings since these are still young clones.

now the standing in a mixture of 25% perlite mix, 25% compost soil and about half dropping. there are so far no signs of nute burns so it seems not to be to strong.

call me crazy but playing with rabbit poo doesn't seem like much fun. however, i am excited to see the pics.
it isn't fun, it is dirty dirty business but it seems to work so far and that seems to make it worth to get dirty. besides, rabbit poo doesn't stink at all as long they didn't pissed on it, a big plus of it when it comes to handling the shit:lol:

Does anyone have any more info on using rabbit droppings? My brother has two rabbits so getting it wouldn't be a problem, and if anyone has seen any real good results let us know. :D
I ran into an old friend, & we got to shooting the shit about growing......so I proceeded to tell him about the new seaweed concentrate I had just bought to add to my line up of nutes.
Well he interrupted me to make his point, and to explain to me that I need to slow down and take it easy......so I shut up and listened to him talk as he explained his simple/organic method.
He's been doing it for years, so I do listen to him, he grows some good stuff, anyway he explained to me that all you need to do is find someone who raises rabbits, then get about 4 gallons of well composted rabbit shit and buy 2 gallons (approx) of perlite. Mix well and plant your plants. This is all you need until flowering. Then just add some worm castings and a small amount of bat guano. Thats all. No more ferts. Nothing else. Other than that, just watch the PH of your water. Sit back, have a smoke and enjoy watching them grow KISS
heres some additional info on this topic:
Manures
source N P K comments Rabbit manure 2.4 1.4 0.6 Most concentrated of animal manures in fresh form.
Cow manure (dairy) 0.6 0.2 0.5 Often contains weed seeds, should be hot composted.
Steer manure 0.7 0.3 0.4 Often contains weed seeds, should be hot composted if fresh.
Chicken manure 1.1 0.8 0.5 Fast acting, breaks down quickest of all manures.Use carefully, may burn. Also, stinks like hell - composting definitely recommended.
Horse manure 0.7 0.3 0.6 Medium breakdown time.
Duck manure 0.6 1.4 0.5 .
Sheep manure 0.7 0.3 0.9 .
Worm castings 0.5 0.5 0.3 50% organic material plus 11 trace minerals. Great for seedlings, will not burn.
Is a form of compost, so doesn't need composting.
Desert Bat Guano 8 4 1 Also contains trace elements. Fast-acting, mix in soil or as tea (1 C guano to 5 gal. water).
Cave Bat Guano 3 10 1 .
Fossilized Seabird Guano 1 10 1 Slow release over 3 to 12 weeks, best used as an addition to potting mix.
Peruvian Seabird Guano (pelletized) 12 12 2.5 Legendary fertilizer of the Incas. Use in soil as a long lasting fertilizer, or make into tea (1 tsp pellets to 1 gallon water).
