Deer antler powder in organic growing?

MDK · Mar 25, 2023

Always looking for ways to keep it natural and close to home I got a couple deer antler on porch that I already used to repair a guitar nut (made bone dust)

Dogs chew on them like a bone, they are high in calcium phosphorus as well as other trace minerals.....zinc, copper etc...actually they appear to be pretty loaded with benefits

Anyone ever tried this?

Haven’t tried it, but would think it would be a lot like bonemeal. The only drawback is it might make your plants horny AF. Ever had a pot plant hump your leg?

Get it into your soil ASAP. It’s gonna take a while to break down.

Yea I was just thinking that it definitely would take a bit.. I've got some compost going maybe grind it up and throw it in that, just trying to recycle

Kinda wonder what the break down is on it tho I may have to run some next run on a plant as a trial from the start...I know my old dog used to choose them over bone figured they may just be richer in nutrients

I think they may be a lot more porous. From all the blood vessels needed to grow them. Maybe the dog liked it because it was softer and easier to chew up. I don’t think you can go wrong with it.
