What Gone Fish N 1 lb Actually Contains
The derived-from list is one line long: fish meal. That is unusual in this range, where everything else is a blend of four or five materials. It makes this the one you reach for when the only thing missing is nitrogen. Micronizing is what makes a meal behave like a soluble. Ground coarse, fish meal is a top dress and nothing else, because it sinks and it blocks. Ground this fine it holds in suspension long enough to move through a line or an aerated bucket. Sensational Solutions says the response shows almost immediately and carries on for several weeks after an application. The analysis is 10-1-1, about as nitrogen forward as a dry input gets.
Placing a High Nitrogen Fertilizer in the Cycle
Watered in, the rate is a quarter to two teaspoons per gallon, every one to four weeks. In a compost tea it tightens to half a teaspoon to one teaspoon per gallon. Top dressing is one to two teaspoons per cubic foot, every two to four weeks. A 1 lb bag carries about 624 gallons at the lightest rate, or amends 156 cubic feet at a teaspoon. That is a long time for a tent, which is the point of the small bag. A facility mixing by the barrel will want one of the bigger bags instead. Where this belongs is the front half of the cycle. It is nitrogen with almost nothing behind it, so leaning on it late keeps a plant pushing leaf when you want flower. Pull it at the flip and let Tranzition take over.
Key Features
- One ingredient: Fish meal, with nothing else in the bag. The rest of the range is blended.
- Micronized, not just ground: Fine enough to hold in suspension and pass an emitter or a nozzle.
- Fast response: The maker states it shows almost immediately and carries on for weeks.
- Three published rates: A quarter to two teaspoons a gallon, tighter in tea, and a top dress rate.
- Tea rate is different: Half to one teaspoon per gallon when it goes into a compost tea brew.
- About 624 gallons a pound: At the lightest rate, or 156 cubic feet of soil at a teaspoon.
- Sized for one room: A pound outlasts a tent by a long way. Bigger bags suit a barrel mix.
- Front half of the cycle: Nitrogen with little behind it, so it belongs before the flip, not after.
- 10-1-1 analysis: Nitrogen by a wide margin, with very little phosphorus or potash behind it.
