I have worked at an animal cremation facility for a few months now. I grow plants on my small balcony Thumb of 2013-07-02/DadofVlad/5122e7
I grow peppers Hot and sweet and tomatoes and herbs and hydrangeas. A couple of months ago we had a nice batch of communal bones that were perfectly burned. Communal are pets that the owner does not want the ashes back and we dispose of them. Normal we dump these in the Hill on a private residence but I took some home about 6 cups worth and used it in my soil. In my containers I use a mix of 5% cremains 75% cow manure and 20% amend. I have also sprinkled some cremains around my plants.

The other day i found that we had a major build up of what we believe is calcium. I scraped that off and grinded it up and put it around my peppers.

Now i have no scientic proof that this is working but my peppers have grown crazy lately.

Can anyone tell me if this is doing anything to anything.
