Hey guys it's that time again and I got a grow setup. I was wondering if I can use my cooking grease for a fertilizer (used) cooked with fish only ....

I don't think cooking oil would ever be a good fertilizer. Not to mention, it's going to attract bugs.

This has got to be a wind up. Cooking grease? Seriously?

I investigated a use myself a while back. Not much use for the home gardener. You could probably use it as a foliar oil based insecticide. Some people make soap out of it. It isn't going to have any value as a fertilizer you feed your plants.
"The fertiliser is encapsulated in a renewable polymer made from canola oil, an abundant waste food product, and sulfur, a byproduct of the petroleum industry."

Improving fertilisers with waste cooking oil
Nanotechnology is enabling new slow-release fertilisers. With more than half of the fertiliser applied to gardens being washed away, a slow-release option promises economic and environmental savings. Made from waste canola oil, this new fertiliser could contribute to the circular economy.

Waste cooking oil used to make slow release fertiliser - RECYCLING magazine
Waste cooking oil collected from cafes and restaurants has been used to make a controlled-release fertiliser that results in better plant health and less wasted nutrients.

I don't know but people use it for making soap. I fry more chicken than fish so I'd probably smell like KFC.

I was thinking Kentucky but if I mixed in some dried Kimchee it would be Korean.
