Certified Organic Kelp Meal from North Atlantic Ascophyllum nodosum
Kelp Meal is a certified organic fertilizer and soil amendment derived from sustainably harvested Ascophyllum nodosum — a cold-water brown seaweed from the pristine North Atlantic. With an NPK of 1-0-2 plus over 60 trace minerals, natural cytokinins, and auxins, kelp meal feeds the plant and the soil simultaneously. Cold-water kelp contains higher concentrations of beneficial compounds than warm-water species, making it the benchmark for quality in the category.
Beyond macronutrients, kelp meal delivers natural plant growth regulators that stimulate root development, improve nutrient uptake efficiency, and build stress tolerance against drought, heat, and cold. The organic matter content feeds beneficial soil microbes, improves water retention, and builds long-term soil structure — making it a foundational amendment for organic vegetable, fruit, and greenhouse programs.
