What Is Seaweed Fertilizer Good For?
Seaweed fertilizer (typically 1-0.5-2) is a micronutrient supplement and plant health booster rather than a primary fertilizer. It's excellent for stress recovery, transplant shock reduction, root development, and overall plant resilience. Contains natural growth hormones (cytokinins and auxins), trace minerals, and amino acids. Use as a supplement alongside your primary N-P-K fertilizer, not as a replacement for it.
