Nutrient Profile and Benefits of Kelp Meal
Ascophyllum Nodosum Kelp: This North Atlantic Kelp is highly regarded for its nutrient density and organic content. It provides a variety of essential nutrients that promote robust plant growth and enhance overall soil health.
Total Nitrogen (N): Frankia Kelp Meal contains 1.0% total nitrogen, all of which is water-insoluble. This slow-release nitrogen supports steady plant growth without the risk of nutrient burn, ensuring that plants receive a consistent supply of nitrogen over time.
Soluble Potash (K2O): The product provides 2.0% soluble potash, an essential nutrient that enhances water retention, improves drought tolerance, and strengthens root systems. Potassium is vital for overall plant health and resilience.
Micronutrients and Trace Elements: In addition to nitrogen and potassium, Frankia Kelp Meal contains a broad spectrum of trace elements that support enzyme activation, improve nutrient uptake, and promote overall plant growth. These micronutrients are essential for various physiological processes within plants.
Organic Matter: Kelp Meal also adds organic matter to the soil, which improves soil structure, enhances moisture retention, and fosters a healthy soil food web. The organic matter contributes to the long-term health and sustainability of your soil.

Top Dressing: For individual plants, apply 10-15ml (2-3 teaspoons) per plant, or 5-10ml per 4L (1-2 teaspoons per gallon) of soil, once per month. This method provides a nutrient boost that supports ongoing plant health and growth.
