A Complete Line of Natural and Organic Fertilizers
At our brand, we offer a comprehensive range of natural and organic fertilizers, soil amendments, composts, and potting media that work in harmony with the microorganisms and organic matter in the soil to nourish plants. Our natural fertilizers are carefully blended from the best sources of organic nutrients in ideal proportions, without the use of synthetic chemicals or low-quality fillers like poultry waste.
Organic Fertilizers: What Are They? Organic fertilizers are derived from plant, animal, or mineral resources, and are combined with organic matter. They differ from synthetic fertilizers, which are manufactured using chemical processes.
Benefits of Organic Over Synthetic Fertilizers Natural and organic fertilizers help strengthen soil health. In contrast, chemical fertilizers are known to deplete soil microorganisms and leach into waterways, creating large 'dead zones' where water no longer contains enough oxygen to support marine life.
Fertilizer Formulations Organic fertilizers are sold in three forms: dry, water-soluble powder, and liquid. Each type has its own advantages and applications.
Introducing Our Kelp Meal Fertilizer Down To Earth's Kelp Meal 1-0.1-2 is a pure, all-natural fertilizer made from Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed harvested from the clean, cold waters of the North Atlantic Ocean. This hand-harvested, carefully dried, and finely milled product is an ideal nutrient supplement for a wide range of plants, including vegetables, herbs, flowers, and perennials.
How to Use Kelp Meal
Containers: For new plantings, add 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of soil and mix thoroughly, or 2.5 lbs per cubic yard. For established plants, lightly mix 1-2 teaspoons per gallon into the soil surface once per month during the growing season.
Vegetable Gardens & Flower Beds: To prepare new gardens, apply 1-2 lbs per 100 square feet and thoroughly mix into the top 3 inches of soil. For new transplants, add 1-2 teaspoons per hole, mix into the soil, and water well. To feed established plants, side-dress 1-2 teaspoons per plant once per month during the growing season.
Row Crops/Acreage: Apply 200-400 lbs per acre, depending on specific crop needs or the required amount of actual nutrients per acre.
Key Benefits of Kelp Meal - Stimulates root development and stops transplant shock - Boosts growth and alleviates stress caused by temperature fluctuations - Provides a rich natural source of potash, trace minerals, amino acids, and natural plant hormones
