    Insect frass....used it for the first time during transplant the other day with some xtreme myco...I am getting great growth but I cant say i attribute it to the frass. It certainly isnt hurting. My soil (royal gold basement) is really light on nutes so I would say it is providing good nutrition. I wouldnt go adding it to your roots or FF during transplant tho

    Okay good to hear someone else is having some experience with this stuff. The transplanting is exactly what I was going to use it for. I use my own personal mix of organic matter, dirt etc etc. Any recommendations as to any brand of the 'frass' sir?(or ma'am)

    Dug a little deeper and ran up on some thread here on riu pertaining to this subject. Any other input is welcome in helping me to choose another amendment for my soils.

    Would you believe this shit? I asked the hunting/fishing associate at walmart if I could buy their cricket frass. He looks at me like wtf is frass, I proceeded to explain basically it was cricket shit. He says, oh umm I dont know, let me ask my manager.

    He goes to ask manager, manager is nowhere to be found lol. Will be going back tomorrow to try and buy or get them to give me their frass
