I thank you for this video Mrs. H! I did improperly mix it on my first time and did burn up some lettuce, but learned my lesson and I just shared this out so that others will know that there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it, and hopefully prevent anyone else from losing any crops. Blessings and greetings from Chicagoland. 🙋🏽♀️
My dad when he went fishing he put all the guts, heads and parts of the fish that was not used in the soil of his lemon trees, and what great lemons came from that wonderful fish!
Honey , I always add my water them my addedtive. Them it doesn't foam on you. I know it stinks. I last fall caught a couple of nice cat fish, i put the head, guts, and bones in a bucket. Filled it with water. Added a lid. And let it sit in the sun. This is to cut cost and make my own. Lol. Now I'm afraid to open it.
I'm A 511 User's It Smelled like, Oh Lord Give me Strength!! 😅😂😅 But Yes It Works, Thank you for Remembering Me!! I Pray You and My Nephew have a wonderful Evening, 💜👍🏾
I believe you all and I take full responsibility for what happened when I used it. Apparently I have reached the age where I can’t read instructions and then go implement them WITHOUT taking the bottle with me and constantly referring to it. I couldn’t tell you right now how much are used, but how much ever it was, they were burned to a crisp; there was nothing green left on the sticks that were sticking out of the garden bed. I came back two days later to rip them up to replant new ones and saw a touch of green on each of them. Out of curiosity, I wanted to see what they would do. That was a month ago… Today, they are larger than any of the other tomatoes I bought to replace them. They are filled out fully and shades greener than any other plant in my yard. Will they produce? I don’t know. They’re so bushy that I knew I needed to de-sucker them, BUT…there ARE no suckers. I’m glad I have pictures to show people that I know, because it’s really hard to picture. Anybody who thinks that fish emulsion is bogus or a placebo or something… I’m here to tell you that I am sure it’s a wonderful product…as with most things, only in the right hands. LOL
My Father was a great fisherman up on Lake Erie...he put all his fish guts in our garden and my mom's rose bushes....wow...a great garden and the most biggest beautiful rose's you ever seen. Fish guts...it really was a great food for all my mom's plants.
Before my grandpa & I planted corn, we went fishing . Saved all the parts not edible & placed it in the planting holes. The corn grew fast & was a dark green. Such a fun time we had fishing & gardening. ❤
I've been using fish Emulsions for at least 7 years and yes it stinks just as much as it's good. I thought I was the only one who says the birds are watching waiting to get your products 😂
@HOMESTEAD HEART It really brings me joy to see you glowing in the sun. Ain't God Good; just a few months ago you and Mr. H could barely get out of bed. 🙏🏾❤
Mrs. H.: Where is you little neck fan? I also put damp hand towels in the freezer to put around my neck when working outside. I keep them in a small lunch cooler and take them with me to the yard when I am mowing.
And if you really want to kick it up a notch add some liquid kelp fertilizer or liquid seaweed fertilizer to the mix. It helps with trace elements, amino acids, enzymes, carbohydrates and fully chelated readily available micro-nutrients which helps to boost the plants vitality. It also helps to stimulate plant growth and produce sweeter fruits. Its organic and all you add to a gallon of water is 2-5 ml for small plants and 5-10 ml for larger plants. GOOD stuff!
I am an old WVn. I can remember daddy having gunny sacks of sucker fish. As we dropped kernels for a hill of corn, daddy cut fish in half and would drop a half of fish with the kernels and cover.
Love fish emulsion. Years ago my stepfather put fish remains in the garden. The garden was far from the house. He just dumped them from fishing. The sweet corn especially, but also the entire garden that year was amazing. Fish emulsion is great fertilizer
Mrs H., I absolutely love your videos. So much learning and joy in each one. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I am always looking forward to the next video! GOD bless
I know that I have only eaten wrabbit al least once in my life , but I don't remember . You can raise wrabbits to eat . Set traps for them and keep them fensed . I don't think that they are hard to raise . Another source of meat . What you loose in corn you gain in wrabbit . You are so fortunate to be able to do all that you do . I wished that I had been old enough to learn all of those things that you do while I was around my grand parents . 🙏🤗
Mrs. H: I would recommend using a pair of disposable gloves for mixing. Tomatoes also love fish emulsion. I try to warn passers by and neighbors when I spray so they don't accidentally get it on them when the wind is blowing.
Hello from alberta canada.Thank you, Lady Heart. You always grow beautiful corn but never know how. You are a great teacher who shares all. Much blessings to you and family
Hey, ma'am. It's best to use declorinated water. Chlorine kills soil microbes and the microbes are needed to breakdown the fish emulsion so the plant roots can take in the fish emulsion. Good video, ma'am.
Oh my. The container tells you exactly the dilution ratio. There shouldn't be any burning going on. I've used Neptune's for years inside amd out. Love it!
"I'm doin' the math on camera." LOL Friend, you are more brave than I!! Thanks for the 511 info. I have used Alaska fish emulsion for several years and I need to get that on my plants right now. I believe I'll get that done today. Thank you for the reminder!
Mrs. H, you are so dang cute!! Love your channel and all you teach us. I figure that if a fish used for growing corn was good enough for the Indians, fish emulsion is good enough for me! My backyard is so huge that I have a grand total of 10 cornstalks growing.
Ok…you and Linda @tnog talked me into getting the 511. I got some today. I just finished fertilizing everything. Let’s see what happens 🤗 Every cat in the neighborhood is now my bestest friend lol 😆
I have been using fish emulsion for years. For seedlings I may start out with a couple tablespoons in a 5 gallon bucket. Less is more even with mature plants err on the side of caution and you will have the most incredible garden ever.
I planted some tomato plants one year. After a few days, I watered the ground around the plants using fish food fertilizer. The next day all the plants were disturbed. Some rodent, I think it was a squirrel? Had dug all the plants up. I am sure they were looking for fish under the soil. I replanted the plants and placed a fence around them. I was afraid to continue using the fish fertilizer, thinking the rodents would continue to unroot the plants looking for something under the soil.
No matter how careful I am, I always seem to get some on me! Lol. I keep watching and always have such garden hat envy! 🤣 Can you share where you got it? The hot Florida sun will fry you pretty quick!
Man the rabbits got almost all my seedlings this year 😢 watermelon, tomatoes, cucumbers, and okra… had to replant and cover with netting until they got substantial size. So my garden is behind a little but it’s catching up 👏
The first time I used Alaska stuff it said 3-4 oz per gallon and thats too strong unless its a foliar, one tablespoon/gal works well to water dry plants. Some knockoff brand did burn my plants and I stopped using it and found a better product. I mostly use 2-3-1 with added kelp and really have great garden plants and the load of tomatoes is OMG. Brother Lead talks about you all the time.
Hello I've been watching your channel for over a year ! I'm a newbie just wanted to say u look so beautiful with your hair out and your beautiful pink hat you have such an amazing way of sharing information so I understand!have a lovely day ❤
You might not have just a rabbit problem if they're being snipped off at the ground, but it could be a gopher problem. They don't leave "mounds" like moles so you don't always know they're there. We use those things that put out a high-pitched sound that drives critters crazy, and it works!! They're also solar-powered, too.
I have had lots of young seedlings & just planted seeds disappear over nite. Due to critters. Have tried everything. Tired of losing our future food to those greedy varmits😢
@@rhondamc3642 far as I can tell it is mice or chipmunk. Something small that can get thru chicken wire. I have most potatoes,sunflowers & lettuce in containers that are deep & covered . Used strong fine mesh nylon netting on blue berry bush. Thank you for your concern.
Great video! I'm about to go buy some but have always been weary about it cause I've never used it, although, I've heard great things about it so I figured I'd try it this year. Perfect timing for me!
Great information about the corn…haven’t tried growing that yet…still a novice but extremely happy with my results so far…thank you for sharing your vast knowledge…truly,appreciated..stay blessed
I've never used Fish Emulsion but definitely gonna give it a try on some Heirloom Henry Moore Yellow Dent Corn that we plan to dry to mill for cornmeal. Thanks for sharing! You always have great, tried & true advice! 🙂
Wish I could grow my groceries. I’m too disabled to harden or can. For years I canned and if I didn’t grow a garden then I went to farmers and picked what I wanted to can.
I bought the same water bottle , it works real good I planted all kinds of food plants last year and put fish emultion but not by instruction I killed all my plants , now I know how , thanks Mrs. H
Garden like a viking channel has a video to tell you how to make your own fish emulsion and fish fertilizer. Its an expensive product to buy already made, but you can make your own for free!
I like him. I’ve made the calcium one he has with the eggshells and vinegar. Started using that with everything as well. My tomatos are unreal. They need calcium.

I'm with you. Fish emulsion is great. The plants all look happier the day after application.

511 Must be diluted properly. It's a great fertilizer for greens and all heavy feeders like peppers, etc.
I've been using fish Emulsions for at least 7 years and yes it stinks just as much as it's good. I thought I was the only one who says the birds are watching waiting to get your products 😂
What a Blessing you did this video! I'm about to put fish emulsion on my garden!👀
First time I see your hair so real and natural love it ❤
Same here. She is such a cutie.
This might be the first time I've ever seen your hair! 🎉

I am an old WVn. I can remember daddy having gunny sacks of sucker fish. As we dropped kernels for a hill of corn, daddy cut fish in half and would drop a half of fish with the kernels and cover.
I had to switch to seaweed fertilizer because I couldn't keep the cats out of my garden lol
I put a pump on my Fish Emulsion gallon jug as it’s easier to dispense without too much drama as long as you are not heavy handed! 🤭😊
Mrs. H I don't care how long you talk when you dropping that knowledge!
Love fish emulsion. Years ago my stepfather put fish remains in the garden. The garden was far from the house. He just dumped them from fishing. The sweet corn especially, but also the entire garden that year was amazing. Fish emulsion is great fertilizer
Yall are teaching me so much. I truly wish I had more land to do this.
Mrs H., I absolutely love your videos. So much learning and joy in each one. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I am always looking forward to the next video! GOD bless
Good Afternoon Niece And Nephew ❤❤❤ yall
Nice! I make my own from my own Alaskan red salmon that i catch in July
Thank you for sharing about the corn! I want to get it right. Grow your own groceries 💕
I just wanted to drop by and tell you how beautiful you look with that hat and those twists Mrs. H. ❤
It was so hot last year until I invested in a Fertilizer Injector. Makes it so easy to fertilizes with the drip tape.
It's looking good Mrs. Heart💯🤗
Talk about banana peels for a nature fertilizer (potassium)

Hello from alberta canada.Thank you, Lady Heart. You always grow beautiful corn but never know how. You are a great teacher who shares all. Much blessings to you and family
Corn is a grain. We eat it as a vegetable. So, it would resemble a grass while growing.
Loving the tee shirt! I use 511 heavily diluted in seedlings as soon as they have true leaves, good stuff

My birds watch me as well. I so enjoy you, you teach me and moms so much.😊
i love your sense of humor. You are right , that fish emulsion will stink Forever!
Looking forward to the cucumber vid. I do not like cucs much but my chickens love them so Im growing them for my chickens
What a and kind lady. I would love to have you and Mr H as my neighbors.

Love using fish emulsion! Also, love seeing your hair. It’s beautiful ❤️
Beautiful video, Mrs. "H"! Thank you for sharing it with us...🇺🇸 😎👍☕

I love it when you post videos like this 😍
Hitting tomatoes weekly with nitrogen produces beautiful.... Leaves. Thanks for the corn tips!
Makes me confident to put more when I foliar spray :).
No matter how careful I am, I always seem to get some on me! Lol. I keep watching and always have such garden hat envy! 🤣 Can you share where you got it? The hot Florida sun will fry you pretty quick!
Mrs.H I came for the info but I ❤ your hair!

I’m so glad I found your videos. Ty for sharing 😊
HELLO HOMESTEAD HEART 💚💕, YES IT DOES STINK BUT IT'S "FERTILIZER MEDICINE" FOR YOUR CROPS, SOME GOOD STUFF

Been using fish Emulsion for years and years...always had great success!👍🏾❤️❤️
Thank you so much for the information on this. I was going to buy some for my corn but was hesitant.
I am going to try a new inoculant made from rice and milk for my plants as a nitrogen bacterial. So hopefully it works
Love your personality
Whew! I smell it here in Chattanooga 😮
Good evening Mrs.H
Hello I've been watching your channel for over a year ! I'm a newbie just wanted to say u look so beautiful with your hair out and your beautiful pink hat you have such an amazing way of sharing information so I understand!have a lovely day ❤
What are those little purple flowers growing on the side of the corn patch? Your gardening/farming videos are inspiring me!

Looking lovely as always, Mrs. H!
Your pink hat puts me in mind of lady lead I think she really loves pink.
Thank you for your help

Hi Mrs H, thanks
Okay thanks for sharing this information 😊💕
Everything is looking good! 👍
Thank you for going over this ,I ordered me some today
Love your hat!

I like the way you give reasons for what you're doing to the plants your working on in video. Love the shirt
Lovin the hat and just ordered one thru your link!!!
Mrs. H. Would you fertilize a small fruit tree the same way?
My plants love fish emulsion. I use 2 blops per gallon....ha!
I love your hat. I need 1.
That's how I feel about my Squirrel Forest, got a lot of birds as well they start chirpings at 0600 or earlier
Love watching you. ❤
Thanks for the demo😊

I like him. I’ve made the calcium one he has with the eggshells and vinegar. Started using that with everything as well. My tomatos are unreal. They need calcium.
It’s only eleven dollars for a bottle. It’s actually cheaper than many other fertilizer brands.
