Does anyone have a link to Urea powder suitable for HHG use? Searching Amazon I see several Urea “fertilizer”. Last thing I need is the FBI wondering why I’m stockpiling fertilizer.

A link to what has worked well for you would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Brad

You can get pure urea on ebay...

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

"Does anyone have a link to Urea powder suitable for HHG use"

You could always use "ready mix" by peeing in a bucket. I've heard urine has about the right concentration of urea to water. laughing6-hehe

I still attribute the discovery of it slowing down HHG to some lazy apprentice who didn't want to take a trip to the well.
