Yes , I used Fish emulsion on most of my orchids , before my move and we had
ornamental water lilly ponds at our old house , but I diluted it to 1/4
strength for paphs and phals
Good growing

People have used various organic fertilizers with great effect, anything
from fish emulsion, to koi pond water, to manure tea (ick). The smell seems
to be the most off-putting comment made about these.

Organic fertilizer
 
I last used Morgrow Bat Guano (organic) on my orchids (and tomato plants
too). I have also used another brand of the same (Whitney?) with good
results. One thing about this fertilizer is if it isn't washed off some
of the leaves, I have not found disastrous results. I used but once
time a dry granule-type product that nearly wiped-out my collection. I,
therefore, am an avid user of the old spray bottle and the types of
fertilizer concentrates that can be applied per the same.
