Kelp Powder (Ascophyllum nodosum)

Kelp powder has similar elements as the meal, but in a concentrated form. The finer grind, added to water, makes for more even dispersion and faster assimilation onto soils. Best used as a foliar spray or irrigation application.

    formation, 2nd: 2 wks. later, 3rd: 14-21 days later
  • House Plants: 1.5Tsp. per gallon of water-1st: at emergence of transplant, 2nd: every 2 wks., 3rd: once per mo. at dormancy

    or heavy use, or to newly applied sod, and as late season spray to help improve resistance to kill and frost damage.
