i used some fish emulsion and it was good stuff. i used it alternately with 1/4 strength pp which is just a chem fert with micronutrients added. i bubbled the fish emu water for 8 hours before using it, to keep oxygen loving bacteria alive. dunno how smart it is, but it worked ok. figure they would eat the oxygen leaving my roots to starve? i dunno. maybe i shoulda just let it ferment.

the downside to fish emu is it sticks to hell. like dead fish. especially once your juice has been sitting for a while. its best used on young plants in veg cycle

if you can stand the stink of the fish, you will reep the rewards of fat sticky stinky buds, use mollasses along with a kelp seaweed extract that has higher P and K then N during flowering. during flowering you only need enough nitrogen to keep the leaves green.

I've used fish emulsion for my whole grow, and it has worked great. Now that I've been flowering for a while, however, I realize that I definitely need something higher in P. I have yellow tips....

I would like to keep it organic... Any suggestions from anyone on a good organic fert for flowering? I hear the kelp extract, but I've had quite a bit of trouble finding it with definite ratio's listed (on the net).

if i start putting my fish emul back in, is it really going to make it that much better? im starting to add mollasses in a few days, i gave them a little during veg. if u could help me understand why it makes the buds that much better.... i would appreciate it
