Kelp seaweed is a type of marine algae, brown in color and with a huge growth size. A product of our nutrient-rich oceans, kelp is often used as a fertilizer to encourage healthier plant growth, promote greater fruit and vegetable yields and to overall enhance the general appearance of a garden or plant specimen. Organic kelp fertilizer is valued for its micro-nutrients as well as its macro-nutrients of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
Organic kelp meal is environmentally friendly and can be safely used around trees and shrubs, on lawns/ athletic turf, added to container gardens and incorporated into organic vegetable gardens. This organic kelp meal can be broadcast, used as a top dressing, applied when amending soils or transplanting, and brewed into a nutrient rich kelp meal tea.
Kelp Meal Tea Recipe:
Mix ¼ cup of kelp meal into one gallon of water, let it steep for 2-3 days (agitating it daily). If you use the tea as a foliar spray, strain the solids out using cloth so that it won’t clog your sprayer.
