Fertiliser

Seaweed fertiliser. Yes... You need it!

One of the simplest and most effective fertilsers every gardener, no matter whether you are just beginning or an old hand, should have in their arsenal is liquid seaweed fertiliser. The benefits of seaweed are numerous and as far as fertilisers or plant conditioners go, it is the great allrounder. 

Here are just a few of the positives that come with regular applications of seaweed fertiliser.

Of all garden fertilisers Seaweed is the most balanced, and contains the broadest range of nutrients. Over 60 nutrients, including all the macro and micro nutrients your plants need are readily available to your plants and it is easily applied through a watering can or spray bottle. 

Seaweed can also be used in just about every garden situation with great results.

For Indoor plants, use regular applications of seaweed in a spray bottle over the foliage. Plants readily absorb the nutrients in seaweed through their leaves and a fortnightly application will keep your indoor plants in great shape.

In the veggie garden, seaweed is a must. The active ingredients, over 70 vitamins and minerals, in seaweed help encourage soil microbial life, increase your plants root systems and make them much more efficient at obtaining nutrition from the soil. In turn this helps with better growth, flowering and fruiting and dramatically increases plants resistance to soil borne diseases.

Seaweed is also an excellent natural pest control/deterrant. Not many insects, especially sap sucking insects (aphids, whiteflys, mites) will hang around when you are regularly applying liquid seaweed over your veggies.

Regular applications of seaweed throughout your traditional garden areas, has the same effect as the Veggie patch, increased soil microbial life, better growth of your plants and increased plant health and protection.
