We all know that Cow dung is one of the best organic natural fertilizer\nfor plants. Cow manure is packed with quality major and minor nutrients\nrequired for plant growth that is NPK \u2013 nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium and\nother trace elements. Roughly the NPK value of decomposed cow dung is NPK – 3:2:1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have fresh cow dung, you can use it\nin many ways and follow few simple hacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Convert\nFresh Cow dung to Aged Cow dung:<\/strong> Yes the next better option to use is an\naged cow dung atleast 6 months old. Simple hack is just dig a hole in your\ngarden, or if you do container gardening, take a large container with garden\nsoil and dig a hole at least 4 to 6 inches deep and pour in the fresh cow dung\nand cover it with garden soil. Leave it to age for atleast 6 months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Another\nsimple garden hack on using fresh cow dung or horse dung is<\/strong>: Dig a hole between two plants and bury fresh\ncow dung atleast 4-6 inches deep and should not be in direct contact with roots,\nthis way the manure becomes a gradual fertilizer around the plant and is not in\n“direct” contact with the roots to burn the plants. The only draw\nback of this hack is, it cannot be used in container gardening, unless it\u2019s a\nlarge container. And one more thing: you\ncan also use sun dried cow dung for this hack. We will talk about this next. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Dehydrated Cow Dung<\/strong>: This in simple terms means dehydration \u2013\nmeaning removal of water from it. This is done in two ways \u2013 the desi method is\njust sun dry it for few days and dehydrate it. This process of dehydration\nspecially the machine processed method which uses heat to dehydrate reduces the\nharmful microbes and also ammonia and salt content to a certain extent. This\ndehydrated cow dung is light weight and can be used on most plants. But use it\nin smaller amounts or better avoid it for young plants and seedlings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find links to purchase these\nonline from below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PURCHASE\nLINKS: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
