Kelp powder makes great liquid fertilizer, and seaweed in general is one of the best fertilizers for plants. The natural alginate within many types of seaweed help to bind soil crumbs together, as well as replenish and boost various nutrients, trace elements, and amino acids absorbed during plant growth. Our Kelp Powder can be mixed with water to increase the assimilation rate. This water and kelp powder mixture can be used as a foliar spray, or added to your irrigation system for ease of application. Consider using our Kelp Powder when fertilizing your products and get the added benefit of knowing no additional chemicals were used.
Our Kelp Powder is not water soluble, yet mixes well with water! When a product is water soluble, it will leach into the ground quicker with less effects. The benefit of our product is its availability to the plant. Our product will remain in the soil, continuing to feed the plant and will leach out gradually.
