The Best Fish Emulsion

Posted by gcws_2000 z9 TX (My Page) on

What is the best fish emulsion product?
I understand that sea kelp is also good when used with fish emulsion. Are there any good products that anybody can recommend that use both?

I've tried many brands (most fairly stinky), but Neptune's Harvest is mild enough to use [lightly] indoors. It is processed differently from other brands, as well, so is supposed to be better. Visit their website for their story. I was so impressed with the product from small bottles that I went ahead and ordered the 5-gallon pail, along with their excellent seaweed.

I use Coast of Maine fermented salmon fertilizer. It stinks but it's good.

The real best fish emulsion is the kind you make yourself, if you feel adventureous!

Homemade Fish/Seaweed Teas

Happy Gardening!

I tried the Coast of Maine rose food & Kelp, and it really is effective. Almost every rose I've tried it on has burst into bloom!
Thanks for the recommendation.

RE: The Best Fish Emulsion and neptune's fish emulsion

Has anyone else noticed that Neptune's fish emulsion is very thin? I just bought a new bottle, and also looked at a bottle at my favorite nursery, and the texture has truly changed.

Wouldn't fish/kelp ferttiizer effect green/leaf growth, not blooms, because it's high nitrogen. I thought a High P fertlizer was better to encourage blooming?
