Hey bro, yeah bird poop can actually work as a nutrient ‘cause it’s got phosphorus and potassium, but usually people use stuff like bat guano or seabird guano for that. The stuff from parakeets or budgies isn’t really the same and could be a bit risky if it’s not composted properly. If you’re thinking of using it, compost it first or make a tea—raw droppings can burn the plant or carry nasties. Use it in tiny amounts mixed into the soil, not directly on the plant. Honestly though—unless you’re doing it for fun or just experimenting, you’re probably better off with something like guano, worm castings, or bloom boosters. Less risk, same idea. Good luck growmie 🍀✌️

In the nineties, my father used pigeon poops for both vegetation and flowering, for the whole season he would fertilize the plants 2 to 3 times at most, and they would be 4-5 meters each and they would give a few kilos of weed each.

Hühnermistpellets und Guano sind zum Beispiel auch von Vögeln. Sehr starker aber sehr gut funktionierender Dünger. Aber ob du den Vogelkot erst ablagern musst, kann ich nicht sagen.

I concur. It isn't like bats (mammals) or some exotic sea bird's organic chelates but still deserves to be returned to the earth. I'd just use it in the garden itself, not the medicinal grow.
