Our heat streak here in Northwest Alabama continues so today we are making sure the plants get a good drink of fish emulsion. We use the Alaska Fish Emulsion that is readily available at your local big box store or farm supply store. Ours at Home Depot was $30 for a gallon, but, I see it is on sale at Rural King for $22 now...dang. LOL

I mix in 4 tablespoons into my 2 gallon watering cans. BTW, this stuff is really thick when you first open the jug. I wasn't able to shake the jug as the fish guts were all at the top, so the first two times using it were very chunky. Once I got a bit out of the bottle, I could shake it up good. And I haven't been walking out to the mailbox lately so I missed by a few days the arrival of Japanese beetles on my roses and canna lillies, so, I get on that this morning. This is the spray I use if beetles make an appearance. One bottle last 2-3 seasons.

Famished Farm is our little slice of 8a (revised) Heaven in Northwest Alabama. We are a tiny farm or a "farm-ish" as I like to say! Our goal this year is to simplify and minimize while keeping an eye to sustainability. We have just enough room here to get into trouble but we always try to make the best of any situation. We hope to grow the garden bigger and greener every year. Join us for the journey and leave any suggestions, ideas or just say HI in the comments. Thanks for reading and watching--please consider subscribing!
