◾️ What does dog urine contain❓
Dog urine contains nitrogenous substances, other organic substances, electrolytes, etc.
◾️ What effect does it have on plants❓
Nitrogen is an essential part of plant growth, but only small amounts are beneficial to them.
Dog urine has high nitrogen contents. These contents infiltrate into the soil and damages the flowers and plants, causing grass to turn a yellowish color as if it had been burnt.
Salts and other compounds in dog urine can also cause damage to the grass and plants. Additionally, highly acidic or alkalinic urine can change the ph level of soil, which is not beneficial for plant growth.
In fact, small amounts of urine can be washed away by rain, thus reducing its harm to plants or soil. This is, of course, assuming the dog has not urinated repeatedly on the same plant or same turf over a period of time.😊
