This batch is based on 2 large wild king salmon I caught. The fillets went into the smoker, freezer, and our bellies. The fish carcasses went into a bucket with molasses and water and allowed to ferment with naturally incurring lacto bacteria. It will stink for 1-3 weeks but then become a wonderful fertilizer for your soil and plants.

I love it! You have inspired me to ferment fish fertilizer for my garden. Thanks for the content and inspiration cousin!
How long is it shelf stable once finished
Thanks for the information
What is bucket size, contains ten litter or more!?
nice but i like some wild salmon heads in a fish head curry 🙂
Need to leave it longer to get it all of it and use what you have and keep topping the water
This will beat just burying the frames. I get mixed results the old way, sometimes it attracts root rot sometimes not… but I think this way will avoid that
Wow, proof in your lush green healthy plants
Place liquid in a medium size muffin pan to freeze them like pucks. keep them in a ziplock back in a freezer and pull them out as needed.
The recipe I watched and are going to try, uses leaf mould and not molasses. He also used a water seal so that the gas can escape but the air can't get in. This process took 3 – 6 months (preferably a year!).
Do molasses have advantages over other sugar forms?
Great explanation.. thank you 🤍.. my question is .. what's wrong with sulfured molasses?.. i ask because i cant tell if the molasses i buy has sulfur or not… It's not mentioned anywhere on the labels of the products available to me
You must have any flies in your area, if I were to use that screen the entire surface area would be covered with flies instantly
Great job
Try adding lactic acid bacteria that will help it break down even faster
☝Listen, …☝
Okay,
☝ Real Talk
☝In Asia, a Salmon Fish Head is a meal for the whole family. Grilled or as a soup. The fact that you call this waste says a lot, without me knowing you personally. I was taught from an early age not to waste anything and to have respect for all living beings. You seem to have grown up rich and be rich. Next time throw some more lobsters, whole salmon in the bucket. 🤑🤑💲💲💲💲💲💲🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🍌🍌🤡🤡I think your bulky waste is worth its weight in gold to others. Your organic bin is a luxury for the homeless. Another fish, or small fish would be okay, but salmon? Salmon as Fertilizer? Come on, this is madness! 🤦♂🤦♂ Salmon smh, what next? Lobster? Alaskan Crab?
If you smoked the fish then you killed all the bacteria it has, it is just now carbon.
Can you keep the solution os fish and mollases out doors in the winter or put in a seal container it will no tburst the lid
Pregunto para que sirve ese preparado que elementos aport al jardin
Made a couple batches this year,one came out ok,but the other stinks horribly and it has been going since early May,not sure what happened with it,a bear got into once,but was able to salvage it,then bugs would eat through cloth and had to put new cloth on it.Kind of afraid of using at this point,not sure if it would be good to use or not,when i say it stinks,it smells horrific,when in past i made this,it always eventually lost its stink and mellowed out
Very nice ❤
Does it work with seaweed. When I upgrade to a ute I'll put loads of seaweed in the back of it and make some seaweed fertiliser. I am not a fan of it tho
Ooh, i can smell those from here.
Very nice demonstration 👍👍🇺🇸
Dog's nose knows! 😤🐕
Use an aluminum screen to keep rodents from chewing through
A buddy started giving me walleye carcasses and I just kept dumping them in a 55 gal. steel barrel with water. I did add some urine at one point. It sat for a year before I ventured to use it. Believe me….. it still smelled pretty rank. Wear rubber gloves and don't spill even a drop on your clothes. I didn't dilute it nearly enough cause I managed to burn 30 tomato plants and several pepper plants on first application. Fortunately I had plenty of extra plants to replace them with. So lesson learned….. dilute, dilute, dilute.
You could drill a small hole in the side of the bucket at high level and tape a much smaller piece of mesh over it to take care of off gassing.
That leaves the lid in one piece to keep out rain and critters.
Have you been putting fish fertilizer on these plants ? They look fabulous.
Man catfish does not break down like Salmon
no such thing as king salmon. you live in some fantasy world where you get to make up names for things already named. you sir are the King Of Fools
How much npk do yo think you are getting from pail full of fish?? Why don’t you get it tested for nutrients? Snake oil
You should use dissolved boiled potatoes. It feeds a wider range of microorganisms!
You can dissolve fishbones with vinegar. 1:10 . And that solution can be added 1:1000 . Great P fertilizer. same goes for eggshells (Ca) or carbonized/burnt animal bones. (P)
I could smell stink just by watching the video oh my God
Thats JLF. Hydrolysate is done with lacto bacteria
Encourageable
Thanks for the vid, was helpful to see the whole process! Btw if you like salmon fat, I would recommend to eat the collars! Especially grilled 🙂
