Seaweed grows in the turbulent Pacific & Atlantic oceans. It is here that the seaweed absorbs many of the worlds elements, including essential plant elements & trace elements.
Along the west coast on Ireland, where this seaweed washes up, it has been used for centuries as a soil conditioner & fertiliser. On barren landscapes & rocky islands, seaweed has become an essential ingredient to ensure the fertility & sustainability in these places.
As well as fertility, seaweed brings a host of bacteria & fungi that work with plants to boost pest resistance & increase nutrient uptake ability.
Better Plants sustainably harvests this natural resource & has repackaged it into a range of user friendly soil conditioners, fertilisers & foliar feeds.
