Re: 100 % germination
Brad, I have a small nightcrawler business for bait purposes, and have used
rabbit turds as a food source for the worms for years. They really love the
stuff after it breaks down some. I've compared plots with/without rabbit
turds, and the plot without the rabbit turds doesn't produce big crawlers
like the plot with. If nothing else, by using it you'll get a good
population of worms in your soil which in turn is very beneficial to your
garden. Pumpkinpiper
