SHAME ON YOU! MAKE MONEY OUT OF THE TRUST OF ALL THE PEOPLES!
Sir how often do I have to use this fertilizer? Thank u Sir appreciate a lot.
I have tomato plants growing good but no fruit how do I fix it
Can I use this in my indoor plants, I have Pothos growing in water only?
What is the theory behind it helping transplant shock?
If that is coming from farmed fish you know it has chemicals pesticides and antibiotics in it. In your video at the They will give you a website to go read about the metals that it contains. I'm leary about that product you have in your hand
I combine a scoop of jacks 20-20-20 and a glug of Alaska fish fertilizer (in the same watering can), and it does wonders! Great results for the past 2 years!
I thought you said Jack's 10-30-20 was your favorite. which is it? :|)
I tried getting some of this cheap fertilizer from a guy, and instead of getting bone meal he gave me boner meal 🫤
Thank you very informative
maybe I can you some of the fish formula in my rat cages or squirrel cage traps ,
will certainly use for my avocado trees lemons and mangos .
Question ……Can I Use the fish fertilizer for my Cuban Royal and King palm trees?
thank you again
Do you use with other ferts
Thanks!
Dude u actually mix it and apply it Thanku subbed😊
When I used a fish fertilizer, the animals dug up my plants. Any tips to prevent that?
I utilized Alaska fish both this year and the previous year, but I found that it didn't perform as well as Neptune's seaweed from the sea.
All of your videos are helpful!
Love Dale! ❤
Your garden “never” fails? I wish I was that blessed!! 😂
I have needy fruit trees in desert soil (very alkaline). Could I combine 5-1-1 fish emulsion and 0-10-10 liquid emulsion for flowers in order to feed both leaves and fruit? What is your opinion on that? Thanks for your clear and concise videos.
Does any of your greens like spinach have a fishy taste? Wondering because some from the store do.
Watch out with the fish emulsion. Rats or carnivore vermin think you have something dead they can eat under the soil, so they dig and dig to find a tender morsel only to not find it and ruin your crop.
I used 2 to 3 caps for 2 gallons water ,and watered my plants in the yard, it turned most of them yellow, my mandavilla turned yellow, then brown and died.
Do you use any minerals such as Azomite? Do you use any humic acid products such as Terra-vita sp90 along with the fish fertilizer? I have found those 2 products can increase yields on vegs and fruit/berries. If you have to sweeten the soil then lime is a good idea as it makes the nutrients and fertilizers even more available to crops. On fruit trees such as apples we always put a cup or so of borax around the drip line on them every 2 to 3 years to provide boron. There are studies that show the benefits of boron on apple orchards along the Columbia River in Eastern Washington.If you google boron and avocado you will see that it is required to get good yields in them as well. I see it is used for mangos and citrus trees around the world,as well. Foliar applications are usually applied with dormant oil sprays to kill over wintering insects in cold climates.
What about mercury in fish fertilizer? I suggest you have your soil tested for mercury if you have used this fertilizer year after year in your vegetable garden.
7:38 – You could always use Fish Blood and Bone
I can’t use the granulated organic fertilisers because my dogs just follow me around eating it. I have to make ‘tea’ with my rooster booster and alpaca poop.
The only problem with Fish Emulsion is the high levels of metals found in it.
Its better to make your own FAA, Fish Amino Acids. Also fermenting your own nutrients. Which is way cheaper.
Agrothrive is fish emulsion. I've been using it for a few years and it's AMAZING!
Thx
How often to add 20×20 fertilizer container garden YouTube
I just came across your videos so far, I like the info that you provide. 👍
Verycool
Great video! Great tips! I love Dale❤ I had a Shiba Inu male dog years ago and every squeaky dog toy I would get him, he would shake it and then rip out the squeak box everytime. 😂 It's those hunting instincts.
Both products contains salts. To us when we hear the word salt we think of Sodium Chloride which is table salt (miracle gro doesn’t have that). However the word salt to a scientist or a chemist means the compounds of an element, for example let’s take Iron, Iron is a metal but you don’t find a block of iron inside the bag of fertilizer, what’s in the bag of the fertilizer is the salt or the compound of the element. Under this definition both organic and synthetic contains salts. The only differences between organic and synthetic are that one is immediately available to the plant and the other has to discompose first (which u mentioned in this video) and the second difference is that organic improves soil aggregation (in the ground only) and synthetic doesn’t. The reason why it improves soil aggregation in the ground only is because most potting mix or better said soilless mix doesn’t contain sand, silt and clay which are needed for soil aggregation. Awesome video by the way. I’m also in NC Zone 8a near Fort Bragg. Been watching your channel for some time now. Huge fan. Hope one day we can meet and talk gardening bro.
Last year I started using a combination of Fish and Seaweed, and also Worm Tea on my lawn and flower gardens which I mix together and apply with a batterie-operated sprayer, all from Petra Tools. As far as I can tell, they work great. This year I've had to mow my lawn every 3 to 5 days and my shrubs and flowers are larger and fuller. In fact, I now have earthworms in my lawn which I never had for the first 7 years of owning this property.
Great video Anthony, how many time do feed the pepper plants with fish ferterlizer 5-1-1 please let me know .and thank you again.
Adding an organic garden fertilizer to a bucket of water mixed with various fast composting nitrogen rich leaf matter will greatly excellerate the bio availability of organic fertlizer. Especially when sunlight and a circulating source of oxygen are added. It also helps to use well water because ooften times that watter comes from deep within the earth where the highest concentrations of minerals are often found. Sometimes we even add a teaspoon of sea salt to a 5 or 10 gallon bucket in addition to a cup or two of organic fertilzer. In less than 7 days you will have a super rich highly valuable water infused fertlizer that is uptaken very quickly by plants. Especially if plants are water during the overnight hours.
What happens if you use waaayyyy too much of this?
Could you give me an apprxomation on raised garden bed (For fruit like tomato, cucumber around how much in % of phosphorous I should look around. Most common fertilizer have at max 2% phosphorous. Will it be adequate with fruit plant as mentioned above.
Try gaia you will love it
You are my go to guy for gardening. You mentioned Fish Emulsion before and I have been using it ever since. My fig tree and tomatoes are out of the world. I just can’t put it on my potted plants because I did that once and wasn’t able to sit on my deck..
Thank you 😊
Do not 😮 flood your carrot 🥕🥕🥕 with this like me lol. 😢 Super lush but no carrots 🥕🥕🥕😔
you know what Einstein said about doing the same thing over and over again expecting different out comes, your dog knows too
It’s garbage. After all the nutrients are heated and extracted is what you’re buying. Make your own FAA.
Fish Amino Acid
