> 2) When I grow my seedlings each year, I use a weak solution of fish
emulsion, but have never used that after transplanting  (the stuff smells
awful, BTW).  If I use the fish emulsion on more mature plants, will the
tomatoes, peppers,basil, etc. taste like fishy?

No they won't taste fishy.  Especially if you don't get any on the leaves.
But in any case the odor vanishes after a day or two at most.  I try to pick
stuff the day I fertilize because some splashes up onto the fruit.

There are also "cold process" fish emulsions that don't smell but cost more.
They have more P and bit less N.
