Have you guys ever used fish meal? Any good? I found some super stanky fish meal in a box that was marked 1/2 off and bought it. Couldn't resist once I smelled it. I mixed it with some blood meal in water and fed it to my plants today as a mid month feeding. We'll see how they like it.

Fish meal?

I used to use regular bone meal but because of it's (very unlikely to happen) ability to pass on a human version of "mad cow disease" I switched to fish bone meal. I usually add a small amount a planting followed by another dose around flower budding time.
Yeah, stinky stuff!
