Reason for trying to understand cow flow chemicals. NMSU claims that chiles
like a nitrogen level of 1.5 and phosphorus at 1.5.

Reading all the chemical combinations at NMSU, Cow manure come the closest
to the ideal for chiles at 1.74-0.5-1.5.

Feeding some potted plants, 2 oz of manure tea per gal of water  These
plants seem to do the best of any combination of low nitrogen fertilizers
that I have tried.

If bagged composted cow manure cost $1.99 in your area this means the cost
per gal of fertilizer is $0.000032+ per gal

Or if you can  it by the pick up load you can make a little over 16,000,000
gals.

BTW  Feeding plants with this
1. Cats don't seem to play in it
2. The plants are the greenest I have ever seen under growlights.
3. Don't think you need mag sulphate or calcium carbonate.
