I don't know if you have a "Franks" in Missouri. They are the largest chain nursery here in Minnesota, and they began carring a fish emulsion this year. I have not seen it a Home Depot.They are just breaking ground on the first Lowes in our area.

I had to call a few of them, but Lowes a few miles away has it.
$5.99 per quart
I will post what I purchased later. Maybe this will help someone else.
One more thing... I am sure this bottle comes with directions (like don't rub it all over you and expect to get in bed with the wife), but when and how much should I apply? Like I said, I'm sure it has directions, but I thought I would some of you who are already using it.
Our current conditions: Rain the last 2-3 days, ground saturated. Expecting more tonight.

Allright... I went to Home Depot (it was closer)
Alaska Fish Fertilizer All purpose deoderized fish emulsion 5-1-1 One Quart
Made by Lilly Miller Brands $5.94 before tax
Any suggestions on applicating from more experienced growers would be appreciated.

Joe, The directions show different application amounts depending on what you're using it on. I have a "Miracle-Gro" type sprayer attachment (forget the brand name) that has a dial where you pick your amount per gallon and it dispenses it accordingly...I set mine for 2-3 tbs and spray foliar and also a drench around the vines. Hope this helps, but go with that general amount.
