Kelp Meal—With Over 60 Nutrients
It's a Gardener's Best Friend

Kelp meal, made from sea kelp, is a very high-caliber organic fertilizer. With an NPK ratio of about 1-0-2, it's a good generator of nitrogen and potassium.

It's made from the sea plant Ascophyllum nodosom, widely recognized as one of the finest marine plants available for agriculture.

It's a rich and reliable source of 60 minerals and elements, including iodine, 21 amino acids, and 12 vitamins, like A, C, B12, thiamine, and vitamin E.

Kelp meal also feeds and energizes soil organisms.

It can be applied to vegetable and flower gardens, potting mixes, and lawns.

It can also be incorporated into potting soils, seed and transplant beds, as well as composting material.

Kelp Meal Results

Creating healthy soil doesn't happen overnight. As you add soil amendments, the soil will turn more crumbly and lighter in texture. It will probably also become slightly darker in color as the microorganisms digest and make the organic matter accessible in the soil.

As you keep using the meal from year to year, you'll see better looking, disease-resistant plants. And your soil will continually look better.

Kelp as a Soil Conditioner

• It's a very good natural ingredient for maximizing organic matter.
• It produces excellent microbial activity in the soil, and develops and supports a large earthworm population.
• It increases water retention, which keeps down nutrient leaching.
• It improves the condition of heavy soils.
• It develops soil fertility.
• It intensifies healthy root growth.
• Its high potassium content is a great plant stress reducer.

Using Kelp Meal

For gardens, mix the meal into your garden's soil in the spring.

For perennial crops, use at the end of the plants' inactivity (that is, after they've stopped growing for the season). Thoroughly combine the meal with the soil or growing medium.

Be careful not to use it in concentrated form directly at the roots.

Use kelp meal as a top dressing for fruit and ornamental trees, lawns and turf.
