Fertilizing your Lawn with Urine

[kwerk]

I was just researching emergency turf protocols for use during a civil emergency (economic meltdown, earthquake, civil war, etc) and I realized that a family of 4 actually produce enough urea to fertilize an average sized lawn, assuming they had access to adequate dietary nitrogen (i.e. protein).

I haven't run the numbers on nitrogen percentages and PH levels but I think it would have to be collected in a tank and diluted to the correct % with rain water to avoid "nitrogen burn", then spread on the lawn every week or so. And because it would be supplied at a more steady rate instead of quick bursts, you should get less top growth and stronger roots compared to commercial synthetic fertilizer, requiring less watering and mowing which would save fuel for more useful things like running the generator.

In the far east and I suspect all round the world, at all the fields there is a loo with a **** hole. Basically like a porta cabin but made of wood instead of plastic.

This is what they do, the workers would do their business there, and use the excrement to fertilise the crop.

Because come the apocolypse a healthy, if somewhat stinky lawn will be top priority.

I don't think he knows anything, let alone something we don't.

Kwerk, you're trying too hard now. Take it back a few notches and we may believe you're that much of a nutjob.
