Apply Homemade Fish Emulsion Fertilizer

Extracting the liquid fish emulsion is probably the most laborious part in making homemade fish emulsion. But once you get the fish emulsion in bottles, it's very easy to use and economical. The fish emulsion has oil and is therefore thick and viscous, much like heavy syrup. Be sure to shake the bottle before using.

One liter bottle of this concentrated liquid fish emulsion goes a long way. A tablespoon of fish emulsion is diluted in a gallon of water, and it is this diluted mixture that you use to water your garden plants. Never pour concentrated fish emulsion directly on your plants.

Collect Extract Homemade Fish Emulsion

After a month of aerating the homemade fish emulsion mixture to help decompose it, the emulsion is now ready to be extracted and collected. Although there is still some fish and molasses odor, the terrible stink of rotting fish is now mostly gone.

The process to extract and collect the homemade fish emulsion concentrate is a bit more involved than the every other day aeration of the mixture in the past month. You may need a partner to help you in filtering out the undecomposed fish parts and sawdust from the liquefied fish emulsion.

Easy Homemade Fish Emulsion Fertilizer

I've read with much interest from the internet how folks prepare homemade fish emulsion and swear by its effectiveness. There are so many articles saying how simple the process is in making fish emulsion. I suspect though that many of these how-to articles just parrot each other.

There is little material thus far, however, by way of photos and/or videos that illustrate the processes involved in this so-called simple procedure - as of this writing, anyway. So this article will illustrate, by pictures, just that.

Homemade Hanging Basket Bracket - DIY

Whether you have a store-bought hanging basket or one that is homemade or DIY, you'd have to hang it somewhere. Ceiling hooks, hanging basket brackets and basket trees are just among those that serve this purpose.

Where to Buy Cheap Hanging Baskets

Wanting to fill up that void on a blank garden wall or corner without taking much footprint? Then garden plants in hanging baskets may be your best bet!

A hanging basket is a suspended container used for growing decorative plants. Typically they are hung from buildings, where garden space is at a premium, and from street furniture for environmental enhancement. They may also be suspended from free standing frames sometimes called hanging basket trees.

Although you can make your own DIY or homemade hanging baskets, you may want to avoid that route. This is if you intend to have several hanging baskets lined up and are after that uniform look. After taking an interest with hanging garden plants, I decided to look for hanging baskets that would serve my gardening needs and not break the budget.
