Is fish emulsion any good?

[griffo84]

hey,just wondering if it is any good or there is something better out there?

[Mojo Moyogi]

Hi Griffo, Fish Emulsion is great. It's organic, Charlie Carp is the pick of the Fish Emulsions because it is made from an environmental pest, the European Carp. Fish Emulsion also attracts bees. A simple general feed program is alternate fortnightly full strength doses of Charlie Carp and Seasol.

Cheers,
Mojo

ok cool,thanks mojo, oh and one more quick question what fertileser is low in nitrogen dont you need that at the end of the season,all fertilisers seem to be high in nitrogen??

I think Fish Emulsion is an excellent fertilizer and I use it all over all of my plants at the recommended concentration once per fortnight when plants are growing.
A handy and available lower N fertilizer is Searles 'Flourish' Orchid fertilizer. If you want larger quantity Grow Force 7 or Grow Force 9 are good options.

I use Charlie Carp as well, but I have been told to mix up the ferts as its better for the plants in the long run
