    Why male urine only?

    It is something to do with acidity [plus easier to collect ;) ]

    But female would do if that is what you have

    I'm a bloke so no probs

    also, just remembered that female urine is a deterrent for deer and foxes, but don't quote me on that.. i know there's a difference between male and female and it's about hormones.. i will start saving mine, tho' it'll be easier getting my BF when he's home in a few months to 'help himself'. i just know that you only need to do it like once a week, rather than putting it on everyday as it's only an activator and that is to be applied every now and again.

    here's what i found on the net - http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/gardening-blog/2009/nov/13/composting-urine i just can't see that happening to all the corporate companies out there, can you??!
