Fish guts as fertilizer?

I've read about fish guts being good for cannabis because its high in nitrogen and some other nutrients I was just wondering how I would introduce it to my plants w/o attracting bugs I'm in Hawaii so I don't have bears and anything like that I would need to worry about,I freedive a lot and shoot a lot of fish so if I can use the waste that I throw away that would be awesome

Don't even think about applying the stuff before it is finished rotting. Nothing in the way of meat or fish or poultry is beneficial in that form. Even their shit is composted before using it. Maybe no bears but certainly there is something attracted to rotting flesh there and it will be digging your grow up.

Yes I know the stories about the Pilgrims and the Indians showing the fools to put a fish with each corn plant. They were probably trying to run them back to Europe.

Unless you have a bunch of extra fish guts you're just dying to use for something else, and have decent understanding of composting I wouldn't recommend it. It sounds like a bug and pH problem waiting to happen. But if you're a fisherman or a fish monger or something like that, I'd look into composting with it. There/s a good thread here about a guy that composts with meat and animals and stuff. I'll look for it for you.
