Could this be used as a lawn fertilizer, as well?

Absolutely ! I’m working on a Venturi pick up tube to utilize my sprinkler system to Fertigate the lawn. Any irrigation system is a perfect way to convey my product to the field.

My bugs are so good at breaking down fats and oils I’m working with an industry expert in compost and septic systems to introduce a septic
tank additive to clean leach fields and condition in service septic tanks and grease traps !!

Exciting products coming soon !!

To apply to the lawn I recommend this sprayer

Fill it up and spray away !! Set the dial at 3oz or more, I ran 8 oz per gallon on my lawn and it did well but I recommend 3oz once a week for best results

My fish hydrolysate can be used indoors on houseplants !
One teaspoon a gallon mix rate.

Everybody has an uncle or dad who buried a fish head under the tomato plants and their tomatos were the best you ever had !! Now you can bypass the decomposition and go straight to the nutrition for your plants !

Wait a dang minute!!! all the above quotes are from you!!! Not in my house is it gonna smell like fish/dead fish. Sure, you work with it everyday and you get 'used' to it. Not in my house. AND still wondering about the cat comment; every cat will be in your backyard looking in the garden for whatever smells like fish.

I may sound a little serious above here, but I wholeheartedly would support this fertilizer product. IN fact there are some pretty large sized buffalo fish in lake Tschida I'd like to see gone!!!!!


"
Dahl Fish Hydrolysate is a small business in North Dakota" where exactly??

@ 1 tsp per gallon my fertilizer is indoor friendly.

People talking about cats are wrong, I have about 16 barn cats and they don't give a crap (pun intended) about the area fertilizer is applied in. I also have a dog that is a jerk and rolls in rotten stuff, she also doesn't care about the treated areas.

There is a smell when applied that virtually goes away as the nutrients are absorbed by plants and the soil. I used this fertilizer last summer all around my house. No skunks, raccons, cats or bigfoots crapped in my flower garden/yard.

I live south of Mandan

Tschida has some big girls, we found some there last summer.

Thanks for the interest Matt

Have to tell you about a bowfishing trip down there (Tschida). I'm sure we were still in high school but buddy took me up to the tailrace to shoot carp one year (1970ish). Long story short that nock/arrow came straight back after missing the fish and hitting a rock and skimmed his cheek. Lucky fawker that's for sure. I have never been with bowfishing since!! two dumb ass teenagers just trying to stay out of trouble!! I see two young boys with ya. STAY SAFE, for sure!!

I'm interested in the septic deal! We've been in our house for a little over a year and it's been on my mind for a bit now...

I have been using Alaska fish fertilizer for several years. It works great. No synthetic fertilizers for me. Local sounds good to me.

What toxins are you talking about ?

My septic tank formula is a super concentrated mix of micro organisms that are very much alive. They have a especially strong attraction to grease that causes problems in septic tanks and the leach field of your system.

I’m working with an expert in compost and septic systems to be certain my product not only works and is safe for your system.

Thanks for your interest.

Im not saying anything against your formula, BP338 sound new to the septic systems and I was just giving him some incite on how to care for it.

The toxins I'm referring is table scraps, coffee grounds and so on.

Thank you for the direction! I've heard your shpeel, and I've heard others say the opposite. We try to be careful with what goes down the drain. We have animals that the scraps go to and we don't have a disposal (bitter sweet for me...) I just don't look forward to footing the bill to get it cleaned when the time comes. So my goal is to prolong it...

Thanks!

The more people in the house the shorter the wait time. Its just my wife and I so every other year. And we always pump late summer. It cost use like 180.00 to get it pumped out.

I remember when I was younger on the farm we were having some issues with our septic system and a good friend who pumped septic systems told us to take a bucket of fish guts, let them sit in the sun and heat for a few days and then dump them down into the tank. It seemed to help back then and fix a lot of the issues. Could have been coincidence though.

Interestingly enough there is a distinct odor with the concentrate but it has a vinegar ( ish ) smell. Don't get me wrong it stinks but not as bad as you would imagine.

After you add water to the concentrate and apply you will smell fish ( amazing right ) but within a couple hours the smell reduces immensely, so much so that it will PROVE to anybody how quickly the nutrients are absorbed by the plants and soil. As a matter of fact that instance sold me on the value of the product.

The only similarity between what Lycan did and I am doing is we both use carp.




Thanks for the interest guys, I also have saved a bunch of water bottles with robust lids. To be able to offer samples at a very reasonable cost.


If anybody has a connection in Sugar Beets or Chrystal Sugar I'm looking for a source of Beet Molasses. I'm considering it as an additive for its nutritional value.

So a trick I have read about for trees and bushes is to take a gallon milk jug, pour a shot of Missouri Magic in then fill with water. ( preferably well or rain water ) .

Then at your tree take a stick pin and poke a couple holes in the lowest part of the jug and set close to your soon to be bountiful tree. Poke a hole in the top of jug also to break the vacuum.

The beet molasses is pretty salty so not sure how that would affect it. If I were you I would look up some people who work at the plants on LinkedIn and I’m sure they would give you as much as you like as I don’t think they sell it for much.

What you have against buffalo? You know they are a native species? The big ones are also approaching 100 years old. Carp on the other hand kill them all!

Will be waiting.

In regards to the septic , I use Septic Saver monthly. Similar to Rid X. They are a pain in the ass. Keep calling trying to sell you the "new formula". Requested they take me off their call list. Nope..
Hope you come up with the new product.

Putting food into your septic system via garbage disposal actually aids in providing bacteria to your tank. I’ve put in quite a few septic systems. The house I built in 2005 went 8 years without a pump out and only did it because we sold the place and figured I should do that before selling. My current house was done in 2013 and haven’t pumped it yet. It works great and as it should. Worse thing you can do is pump them too often

I'm glad you posted that eyexer, I was getting worried...we haven't pumped our septic tank in 10 years...

What kind of signs will you have if you do need to have it pumped??

I think the laundry room is a big culprit If you wash a lot of muddy or dirty clothes. Also bleach and some detergents kills the good bacteria in the system. I'd never thought of the garbage disposal , I can see where that could be be a good thing, Need to train the wife to use it more.

There are none that I am aware of but there is a major costly one when you discover that you didn't pump it often enough.
