i used some potting soil mix from a local nursery mixed with chicken manure, blood meal, bone meal, perlite, and peat moss. at the bottom of each box were pieces of 2 stingrays, and 3 leopard sharks. the bottom was just loosened up about 4 inches, but it is much to hard to dig deeper.

wow you serious about the pieces of shark? just pieces of meat and skin? I never herd of that before. Hate to be 21 questions but high are these boxes? and wide? I wanna maybe do something like this for 2011 and get clones and try it like you did.

yup pieces of shark. i didnt want to catch little bait fish for fish emulsion so i went after the big boys. the boxes are 16 inches high, so not too big. soil is expensive but the bigger the better.

Pics of the fish pieces please. Or fill me in. Like just cut up pieces of shark bones meat and skin? If so thats awesome the bay has lots of sharks. But it sees like if the pieces were older than fresh cut then it would be better?

pieces of fresh whole shark and stingray. by the time the roots touched them they were decomposing.

It has been a while since my last post but the girls are 2 weeks into budding. the kushberries are close to 9ft tall after being lst'd at 4ft tall and being weaved through screens. the j27 and bagseed slowed their growth after the kushberries caught up. looking for some lbs.
