Hey Robin, You may be on to something there, Why not - they do it with cows. Maybe if you baked it in the oven ugh, them packeaged it. It would work. I know WalMart will have 50 pound bags of cow do do as soon as Spring breaks here in New England. It is processed and ready for the garden. From now on, I will treat my house plants to a shot in the root and check back with you. Marilyn [Posted in FML issue 5156]
