Default Fish Emulsion.

In article ,
says...
Fish emulsion is made from fish themselves, with some processing.
Somewhere on a State of Alaska website is directions for homemade fish
emulsion involving soaking fish collars in a 50 gallon barrel for 10 -
14 days. Of course, considering how that smells, you might have to stay
in a motel for the last 7.


LOL! I'm used to it, to some point. I haven't lived on the hatchery for
about 8 years now, so it's a bit of a shock to the nose at first when I
do visit, but trust me, I have firsthand knowledge of how dead fish
smell. P.U. I may have to raid the "mort" pits.

I wonder how the manure would do. I might have to try and add some to
compost, or some such thing. I know that some farmers around here (fish
capital of the US) do use the liquid fish manure on fields, though most
use dairy manure. It's usually applied in the fall and left to sit all
winter.

Thanks for the links...will check it out.
