Amino acid with placenta
Hello, I’m looking to make amino acid fertilizer with my new born son’s placenta. I do not have IMO made so can I add a bit of soil to the top layer, or LAB?

The library says nothing about placenta. It does cover amino acid made from animal material.
- Drake has made amino acid from pigs and mongoose, not only fish. (Office Hours Ep. 25, 44:34)
- The base recipe is fish and sugar 1:1 by weight, then a wait of 3 to 6 months. A faster rotted-meat recipe takes about two weeks. (Office Hours Ep. 124, 24:32)
On IMO, Drake says none is needed to make fish amino acid. (Office Hours Ep. 27, 14:37) Cho's recipe lists IMO #4 among its materials. The two sources differ. (Cho, Recipe, p. 48)
On LAB, fish amino acid ferments with sugar and lactic acid bacteria, without heat. (Office Hours Ep. 11, 7:13) The sugar cap dissolves once lactobacillus kicks in. (Office Hours Ep. 27, 14:37)
The library does not say whether to add soil or LAB to the top layer. It does not cover placenta, human tissue, or safety. That question needs Drake's judgment.
