Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane - the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let's get into it! Cheers, Mark :)

    Hi, Mark. When the Native American Indians used to grow the Three Sisters (corn, beans and squash) together out in the desert, they always buried a fish in the mound where they planted the seeds. People have been doing this for thousands of years. It's proven to work.

    Regarding the "slow start" with the fish heads: Its important to understand that speed of growth doesn't necessarily indicate better performance. While the fish head plants didn't grow as tall it first, they had greener leaves. This indicates a higher chlorophyll concentration, which was better supported by the nitrogen content of the fish. Because of this, the greener plants were better able to produce food than the no fish head plants, so they didn't have to spend more energy growing taller and could instead put more energy into establishing leaf and flower buds as well as a better root system. This allows the plants to be stronger and more productive in the long run. The no fish head plants had to invest more energy in growing taller in an effort to collect more sunlight. Furthermore, increased flowering and fruiting is supported by phosphorus, which bones are pretty high in and potassium helps grow better roots. Also lots of iron from blood, which supports both photosynthesis and respiration (converting sugars/starches into energy).

    I wasn't going to grow tomatoes because I moved to a place with no garden...but in one of my containers of soil, a bunch of tomatoes came up...late. Not getting much sun, they aren't growing fast. Thank you for reminding me about the fish! That'll work.

    Imagine if the fish memories are somehow transfered to tomatoes, and when you it the tomatoes you saw through the fish perspective, yes I am high.

    The root growth was stunted because you created 'hot' compost.

    My grandfather always used fish heads in his garden , we would go on a number of fishing trips so he had plenty of heads and a years worth of smoked fish . It always seemed to me as a child his garden was immaculate and produced heavy .

    This works incredibly well on corn too. The plants last almost twice as long and produce giant corns
