anyone? thanks

Looks good. I would email them questions, such as if it contains all 16 essential nutrients, and if the emulsified fish was processed with Phosphoric Acid, which is bad for our microbes.

hey thanks bro, i will go ahead and do that... thanks for the advice

i begin using it today mixed in with my straight fish emulsion that is a 5-1-1

i will see how they respond as they have a new home with a lot more lateral space then before..

Sounds good bro, shoot me a message with the results. What type of soil are you in? Because Fish Fertilizers alone won't do the job. 14 elements to survive, 16 to thrive.

Sure will. Im using subs ss mix, so its got the azomite in it with all those elements and minerals and the top layer is ffof.

Im not sure how much to use, so ill stick to the 1tbsp/gallon

Thanks for the help and interest

dude your gonna fry your shit using supersoil and feeding on top of that.

If you make the supersoil properly and use ocean forest as the top half, all you do is water (RO) or let it sit out for around 48 hours. Add some calmag if you use RO. If you feed on top of that, you will have crispy plants.

thanks for help guys, but im in 3 gallon pots so i need to feed if i understood what sub was saying right...

i just used that today so i will see how they look...

i will keep you updated...

so did ur plants burn or respond good to the fish? any pics???

A little phospo acid can't hurt if you follow up with a serving AACT to the soil in a day or three. Sometimes you just have to push the envelope when growing indoors.

nah, they are doing awesome! aint nothing wrong with them and i think they really liked it a lot... i think i will be adding some more this week... no pics bro, sorry.

I don't think that fish emulsion is 100% organic, it contains ammonium nitrate

it is ferti lome fish emulsion. i have not been using it since i got the johns recipe. what brand do you recommend?

I can't really recommend anything yet because I just got into using organics but I did get the alaskan fish emulsion and looked at the N source it had in it and it was ammonium nitrate which to my understanding is not an organic source of nitrogen..

But you might wanna check your label to make sure, I have been using neptunes harvest for a couple of weeks and so far so good... Can't comment on how well it work in bloom cause havent made it that far yet..lol I have used chemical food for almost 10 years and decided to try a healthier route

You should study up on nitrogen cycling, or nitrification, mineralization etc and the differences between NO3-, NH4, NO2- in soil diversity. That should set you straight.

Yes it is, I was actually speaking of alaska fish ferts, it's organic based but not totally organic... I have been using neptunes harvest which is 100% organic... I think
