We must be watching the same videos. I just made my own fish hydrolysate as well. I am happy that so many people are catching on to natural farming practices. Good luck! One tip on the fish fertilizer. I put the fish in a food processor then add 3:1 destilled water:fish (as we want to preserve the beneficial bacteria the water needs to be unchlorinated and free from chemicals so the fish can ferment, rain water, distilled water work great), 1:3 Sugarto fish or black strap molasses and finally a table spoon per liter of sauerkraut or other fermented food brine (make sure it wasnt pasturized if its from the shop) to speed up the process. The solution will become liquified much quicker and you dont need to strain it at the end (way less yukky). It's basically a fermenting process that will liquify the amino acids and minerals. This way the fermenting process won't take much longer than a month. Hope that helps 3:1 Distilled or chlorine free Water to fish 1:3 Sugar to fish (too much sugar may also kill beneficial bacteria, sugar is a food preservative) 1-3 Table spoons of ferment brine per liter Process the fish for better liquid and faster fermentation Store in container that allows for gas exchange Use 0.5 tbsp per liter of water for application (again chlorine free water)
Omg your a saint!!!!! I've been asking all the yt gardeners for a fertilizer recipe since all the sanctions with Russia are going to make it impossible to get fertilizer. I'm so glad you made a video you are amazing!!!
That is pure dedication! 👍🏻 I gag just opening my fish emulsion container once a week and I'll bet it doesn't smell as nasty as the fresh concentrated stuff. 👃
I love watching your channel. Your voice is very easy to listen to and the visuals are colorful. Your alpaca fur can be placed around the individual sweet pea plants to help keep the snails and slugs away. I use the alpaca poo in a tea with water and it can be used right away or later. Alpaca poo is a "cool "poo so can be used immediately, unlike the pig or horse poo, and its grape cluster look is easy to isolate. We have gophers here so I use a cedar raised beds with 1/2 inch by 1inch ( about 13mm x 26mm ) wire on the bottom. I lay the wood box on dirty sheep's wool, add dirty alpaca bedding and then soil sifted from compost piles (saving every worm) or compost ordered in. Each 4' x 6' x 1' bed holds a cubic yard of soil --a ton. I built and filled 37 beds with flowers and any handful of soil will have several worms. I live in cool, never hot, coastal Northern California on river delta land called the Arcata Bottom so I know I have easy gardening for my retirement years. Bearded Iris are my favorites.
I cant wait for an update on how the plants do after their first treatment, and any adjustments that need to be made. But I am not going to lie, I was most fascinated by how completely unaffected you were by the stench (both when chopping the fish, and squeezing the mesh bag). I may or may not have gagged just watching. hahahahaha
Really interesting. I used to swear by blood fish and bone and chicken manure pellets but urban foxes started digging up all my plants, so stick to grow more and seaweed extract now.
@@elenapaiuc4619 Hi Elena. I would wait until seedlings have developed 4 true leaves, and then only apply to the soil, not direct to plant. Not sure if you are based in the UK but Morrisons supermarket is the cheapest I have found it. Price varies widely, but all look to be the same stuff. Good luck with your seedlings.
In a fairly warm climate, you can find a recipe to have it fermented a lot faster. I was able to use mine after 2 weeks with excellent results. But you take what you need and leave the rest to keep fermenting
Thanks Sarah, I am Buddhika from Sri lanka. It is a very nice video. Please tell me 1.Can we use remaining trash again for this process? 2. How long this fertilizer can be kept stored? 3. What are the plants which will give best results? I hope your kind response
Freshwater fish isn’t as good as sea dwelling fish contain lots more minerals etc, however it may be possible to add something like sea salt to get those minerals. If you have Nigel palmers book he may say something on the subject?
Very interesting, can't wait to see the results. However don't think I have the stomach for making this and Hector is so funny to watch. Love your pizza oven where did you get it from or did Rob DIY superstar make it. 😍
I’m here again, I keep finding my way to your videos. I’ve bought my microscope now and I’m here following the route for making hydrosylate for feeding my compost tea. Any Thoughts?
good video Sarah - was up in almosts gods country last week but east riding really is miles out. did you leave a control section of the nigellas not sprayed as a reference?
Hi. Thanks for sharing. I love your DIY approach. I bought some fish and bones extract but I was not sure how to use it: for which plants and at what stage of growth. Please keep on sharing! :) I also have some seaweed extract. Do you have any experience with that?
i make mine using latic acid and molasses as it speeds the process up so its ready in weeks and not months i'm growing marijuana here in thailand and there growing at fast rate with this
Cute lady,your recipe need some sour milk to get it fermenting to get a proper product,according to other videos i been watching,i have a sal.on run comi g theew right now up in BC,so i had this idea to make some emulsion,i like your voice too🙂
Things are doing better but I’m expecting it to take at least a couple of years to really notice the difference. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to make much time for foliar feeding this summer but it’s on the to do list!
Hi I tried making the fish fertiliser you have shown. It doesn't work. The high sugar content has stopped any breakdown. In fact it has preserved it. Which is not surprising as that is what it does for fruit when you make jam.
I container garden and this year I got sound sardines in water and planted them in my tomatoes. They seem good, I just put out some worm casting from my little helpers and I think I'll get some tins or look for sale fish and do this, why the sugars,to ferment? I suppose. Being in a apt. I may keep this mix in my shed over the winter months
Most flower farmers get interrupted by their cats, dogs or chickens. Yours is the only one with Hector the pig! Always enjoyable!
Thank you, just started using fish fertiliser - excellent videos . From Pretoria - South Africa

A very beautiful ,smart,female farmer...thanks for the video

Thanks. Is it true my sister ? I have been researching this for 9 month. Your ratio of 1 to 1000 is unbeatable by far. That's why my question
That is pure dedication! 👍🏻 I gag just opening my fish emulsion container once a week and I'll bet it doesn't smell as nasty as the fresh concentrated stuff. 👃
Doesn’t smell at all. And in a year the bones are turned into sludge which I put in my compost.
you can use a fermentation jar with airlock and it would not smell at all...blessings

Good night my dear friend...Thank you for sharing a very good video, I wish you more success
Really interesting. I used to swear by blood fish and bone and chicken manure pellets but urban foxes started digging up all my plants, so stick to grow more and seaweed extract now.
Hi Bob, I want to start to use seaweed extract for my seedling. When/ at what stage of the plant growth would you advise to apply?

Hello from Vermont U.S.A. You have introduced me to many ways to produce organic fertilizers/soil health boosters. Thank you.
In a fairly warm climate, you can find a recipe to have it fermented a lot faster. I was able to use mine after 2 weeks with excellent results. But you take what you need and leave the rest to keep fermenting
So it can be used quickly if put in sun? For houseplants?
Great work!...(I just put my lunch to the side for a bit thou 😆 ) would be interesting to see a comparison of a crop sprayed half with half without.
I think i have a carp heads in a bucket from over 10 years ago somewhere in the basement, at this point it's either fertilizer or japanese delicacy
Made 2 containers, one I used after 6 months the other I left for this season. The fish bones dissolved into sludge. Which went in my compost.
Hi Sarah, very interesting information about fresh fish. Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
It's called fish hydrolysate.
Well done girl.
praise me
Naughty pig! Ha ha ha! Great job on the fish fertilizer 🐖🐟🌱
Thanks Sarah, I am Buddhika from Sri lanka. It is a very nice video. Please tell me
1.Can we use remaining trash again for this process?
2. How long this fertilizer can be kept stored?
3. What are the plants which will give best results?
I hope your kind response
Rob is gonna think that bottle is tabasco sauce. Eww! Excited to hear about your results.
I just made my own fish emulsion. I used molasses in mine.
We dont have an ocean near us, but my husband os alwaus catching fish from rivers & creeks & we allways have extra pieces!? I'm going to try this!

I applaud your efforts. But that's a lot of work! I think I'll keep buying fish emulsion.
Nice 👍

Great job...keep it up ..
Nice , I am from indonesia 🙏😊
good video Sarah - was up in almosts gods country last week but east riding really is miles out.
did you leave a control section of the nigellas not sprayed as a reference?

how did it went? can't find any updates.
i make mine using latic acid and molasses as it speeds the process up so its ready in weeks and not months i'm growing marijuana here in thailand and there growing at fast rate with this

How was the out come?
Hey Sarah, I missed this video and I’ve been wondering how your soil is doing after applying your natural farming techniques?
Things are doing better but I’m expecting it to take at least a couple of years to really notice the difference. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to make much time for foliar feeding this summer but it’s on the to do list!

Look up garden like a vikings on u tube it's one of the best guides to make fish fertiliser and brilliant tips for other gardening projects
That means your water content is not high enough - too much sugar will of course preserve whatever is stored in it.
Can i use white sugar
It’s easier and very effective to just bury the whole fish a few inches below the plant.
Not when you have 1000s of plants!
@@bloomandgray you can cut the fish into pieces and use smaller pieces in each hole when planting.
I container garden and this year I got sound sardines in water and planted them in my tomatoes. They seem good, I just put out some worm casting from my little helpers and I think I'll get some tins or look for sale fish and do this, why the sugars,to ferment? I suppose. Being in a apt.

you used amino acid to make fish fert you mean?
So impressive; but yuckypoo, lol! 🤢
Can't wait to see the results.
Can’t believe you didn’t taste it 🤔
No thanks! I swear I can smell it here in the US!
No, you can't.
Is this Alabama?
That is not a fish fertilizer it is a sugar melted mostly and mold is not supposed to be there. Sorry.
