Seaweed Analysis

See what nutrients seaweed provides.

Did you know that every natural element known to man exists in seaweed? Or that seaweed, which concentrates these elements in its tissues; in turn, provides plants with more than 60 minerals, vitamins, macro/micro nutrients and amino acids! Studies have determined that this has been known for centuries! Seaweed (or kelp) is one of the most valuable soil conditioners in the world!
We naturally sun dry our seaweed to better preserve the many vitamins, hormones, nutrients and growth regulators it contains.
