I have been using Alaska fish fertilizer for years. I like it because it is a natural fertilizer, won't burn and I think it really boosts my harvest yield and size of plants. I especially like it on my onions. I start my onions from seed and by harvest time and one/two applications of Alaska fish fertilizer during their growing season, I pull/dig onions the size of softballs and larger.

I have used this product for three years. My goal is to have an edible yard, and to be as organic as possible in a suburban setting. Fish fertilizer was recommended by organic gardeners I respect, so I have used both the liquid and pelleted forms over the last 4 growing seasons. Warning - your yard/garden will smell like fish for a day or two after application.

    Roses and fish eww
    First time i used this product in my rose garden, BOOM GOES THE BLOOM!!! At first wasnt sure i wanted to smell fish with roses, but the smell does not linger too long. So I used it for the pumpkins and results are better then what they were before use. I recommend this product for good results; "Happy Gardening everyone."

      I have been using this fertilizer for a couple of years. I wish I could buy it in bulk, like 5 gallons instead of the little bottle. No doubt about it, this stuff really smells, but the smell goes away in a couple of days. My roses are loaded with flowers. I usually don't mix it with water, but instead pour a little at each bush and just water it into the soil. I use this in hot weather as well, it does not burn the roots.

      Easy to mix, easy to use and seemed to work really well with all my outdoor plants. I have been using it for about 3 weeks and it does the job. My plants appear to be more fuller, brighter and healthier.

      I've been using "carp" from Craigslist until I found this product, it' worked wonderful !!! My foxy or pavement roses, peonies in front of my house just like it on steroid after a month using Alaska FF. My basil, cucumber plants, so as tomatoes were excellent. leaves were so green, healthy ! I liked it so much, so this year I purchased 3 gallons instead of one, no burning worry in case you applied too much! One bad thing : it smelled a little if you apply on a hot day, it last for few days :). Best of all: Home Depot got best prices compare to other.

      Very good product
      This has to be the best price out there for a gallon of fish emulsion and it ships to the local HD for free!! Cant beat that.. I go through about a gallon of this Alaska brand fish fertilizer a season. I use it in my gallon sprayer , also add to a 5 gallon bucket of water and pour around newly planted plants. Yes it does stink but I would rather have a couple hours of smell than knowingly dump chemical fertilizer on my plants. Just saying...

      This stuff IS the stuff
      I'd heard about fish emulsion before but I never thought it would perform as well as it has. My radishes are almost ready to pick and I planted them the 2nd week of April. I'd recommend this to anyone that wants to help their garden in a great way, and it's all natural.

      Smells a Little.... Fishy?
      I'm not sure how this fits in to my organic gardening (I start my plants and fortify my soils with organic products, although I only do so because it seems to work best). However, having amply applied the fish fertilizer to my plants, I saw little difference, but smelled a huge fish. My garden smelled a lot like a day on the Chesapeake, or out by the ocean on the Eastern Shore. I gave up on this and went with the Miracle grow 4-pack bottles that you use with the sprayer. THAT had a noticeable effect on my plants. So, being an "organic gardener" of convenience, I found this inconvenient and went with a chemical product.

      BEST PLANT FERTILIZER EVER !
      I have been gardening for many years with much success....but this year all my flowers, trees & bushes were really struggling. A friend told me to buy the ALASKA fish fertilizer, and it's the best thing I have ever done for my plants! This stuff is amazing! Within a week everything was doing great, and within 3 weeks most plants had doubled in size! I'm glad that it also comes in the gallon size....it will last the whole season. FABULOUS PRODUCT!

      BEST FERTILIZER EVER
      This is the third year I have been using Alaska fish fertilizer. This stuff absolutely reeks, but it grows the largest sunflower and corn I have ever seen. I switched this year and tried triple 13 and could not get the same results. I am now back with Alaska and the second crop has been planted.

      Best value organic Nitrogen fertilizer
      Easy to use, lowest cost liquid nitrogen source for organic production. Has lots of sulfur and iron, but is lacking in every other trace element. Pic is kale in our greenhouse grown with this fertilizer.

      Grow SUPER plants with fish emulsion!
      I have used fish fertilizer for over 30 yrs. If u want to grow plants that are SUPER healthy and the ENVY of your neighbors, USE THIS PRODUCT! I have a home garden as well as MANY tropical plants. Fish fertilizer helps my plants defend against pests and the heat of summer in FL. You simply cannot go wrong using fish fertilizer for ALL of your plants.

      Great product, great value
      I used to use a version of this product long ago but the smell was so powerful I stopped using it. This one is much better and it will make my veggies taste wonderful! I'm also using it on my flowering bushes that desperately need help.

      Fish Fertilizer
      I've been gardening since I was 13 and am now 68 and a Master Gardner. Fish fertilizer is always the perfect summer 'pick me up' for tired, over heated plants......be sure to include your ferns! It's a miracle in a bottle.......keep the neighborhood cats away!

      Was good, but no longer OMRI listed
      When it was OMRI listed, it was safe to use on organic food crops. Now the OMRI certification is gone, and there's a sticker on the front label of the quart containers covering the fine print that reads 'Not for use in organic food and crop production'. At my local store, the price of the quart bottles is now half of what it was previously. If it's no longer safe for organic food crops, you may as well be using the cheapest chemical fertilizer. Even though other brands are cold processed to preserve the integrity and availability of all the nutrients and this product is heat processed, I used to like Alaska Fish Fertilizer because it was safe for organics, relatively easy to find, and worked well. No longer OMRI listed, I won't use it any more.

        Great product
        This is the only fertilizer I use in my greenhouse, it works very well on cuttings after I get them rooted in the intermittent mist bed. I tried different fertilizers on young tender plants without success. It all so works great in the vegetable garden, tomatoes love it. I highly recommend Alaska fish fertilizer.
