If you're aware of the great benefits of using seaweed and kelp fertilizers in your garden, then it might encourage you to know that it's fairly easy to get your hands on.
It may be as simple as taking a walk on the beach, but you can find the different forms of seaweed products at your local nursery or garden shop, too.
Or you can buy it through the Internet for those who enjoy the convenience of online shopping.
You can certainly avail yourself of the seaweeds and kelps of your local beaches.
If you happen to be fortunate enough to live near the coastline, why not take along a large bucket to collect it in?
It can be added whole and fresh right from a local source. Or it can be used as mulch added between plants in your garden.
Since seaweed is typically 70% water, it breaks down very quickly. Don't forget to rinse this of the seawater because the saltiness discourages earthworms.
Take care to use only seaweeds that are harvested in waters that aren't contaminated by pollution.
Also, you'll want to check local regulations on harvesting seaweeds and vegetables since some beaches have been over harvested or there may be notable concerns with pollution in the water.
For those who don't have the local source or don't care to harvest it fresh, there are more convenient ways to buy seaweed fertilizer.
It's as simple as buying it by the bag or bottle at your local garden store or nursery.
A common form is called kelp meal, which is a dried granular form of sea fertilizer.
This would be suited to adding to your potting soil before planting or turning into your beds as you prepare to plant in the spring.
Look for other kinds of seaweed fertilizers in both liquid and powdered forms.
These are the ones most commonly used for foliar feeding or watering on the soil. Each comes with its own special recipe that makes their product different.
When you can't find a product locally, or you just like the convenience of ordering your product online, there are many retail and wholesale outlets that sell seaweed fertilizer products. You may even find a greater variety online.
If you have any question at all about where to buy seaweed fertilizers, remember you can contact a gardening group in your county or on the 'net.
Ask them about their favorite seaweed fertilizer product and how they may use it on their gardens and any special information for your locality and for the particular plant in question.
This way you can know for sure how to best use the various products out there and find out where to buy it.
