🌱 About Our Homemade Fish Liquid Fertilizer
At Evergreen Hideout Agricultural Services, we prepare homemade fish liquid fertilizer using fish remains such as scales, tails and other fish parts. These materials are allowed to decay as part of our preparation process, producing a liquid fertilizer that we use in our vegetable gardening activities.
This is a homemade gardening input, not a factory-manufactured or laboratory-standardised fertilizer. We also make it available for people who want to use it in their own vegetable gardens.
Our approach is rooted in practical gardening and making use of materials that might otherwise be discarded. We share our experience so that other gardeners can learn how we prepare and use this product.
🥬 How We Use It in Our Vegetable Garden
We use our homemade fish liquid fertilizer on vegetables in our garden, including leafy crops such as spinach. The amount and frequency of feeding depend on the condition of the plants and the weather.
During hot periods when there is little or no rain, we may feed more regularly, particularly when growing spinach for harvesting and selling. During rainy periods, we generally reduce feeding and may apply it twice a month, leaving a week between applications.
Our usual practice is to apply it two or three times per month, adjusting according to the crop's growth and the weather. This is our own garden practice, not a universal feeding schedule for every vegetable or growing condition.
💧 How to Dilute the Fertilizer
Our usual garden dilution:
440 ml fertilizer per 20 litres of water
Mix the fertilizer thoroughly into the water before applying the diluted mixture to the soil around your plants.
The dilution above is the mixture we use in our own garden. Because this is a homemade product and its nutrient concentration has not been established through laboratory testing, the mixture should not be interpreted as a guaranteed concentration or a universal recommendation for every crop.
If you are trying the fertilizer for the first time, consider testing it on a small number of plants and observing how they respond before using it more widely. Avoid applying the undiluted concentrate directly to plants.
♻️ Making Use of Fish By-products
Fish scales, tails and other fish remains can be useful raw materials in homemade gardening preparations. Our fertilizer-making process gives some of these discarded materials another use.
We believe practical gardening should encourage people to learn, reduce avoidable waste where possible and explore locally available resources responsibly.
