There is an option of buying the fish emulsion from a local store, but homemade is more recommended. With commercial fish emulsions, you can never be sure of the contents used; some companies may use only selected parts such as the fish head or the fishtail in the production process. Some may also use cooked fish. With homemade fish emulsions, you can maximize the fish by ensuring bacteria/fungi are in huge amounts. Directions for Making Fish Emulsion Fertilizer
Half fill a 5-gallon bucket with composted manure, composted leaves, or chicken house sawdust
Use locally caught fish if able if not…..
5 to 10 cans of Sardines in fish oil; you can buy the cheapest
A handful of Epsom salts
Fill rest with water
Cover the bucket and drill holes with a lid to allow airflow
Consistently stir the mixture for 14-30 days
Optional: I have done and not done it both works well, add a no brand bottle of blackstrap molasses this helps with the smell, but it mostly feeds the emulsion as yeast does to water when making bread
If you want to give it a whisk, I use a long 32-inch drywall mud mixer that attaches to our drill used for mixing spackle
