Granulated soil additive from Ascophyllum nodosum to boost soil biology, nutrient availability, and stress resilience
SNOEK's Sea Wonder Seaweed Granules are a sustainable soil additive made from the brown algae Ascophyllum nodosum. The granules complement traditional fertilization by stimulating microbial activity in the soil as an organic substrate, improving soil structure, and enhancing crop resilience against abiotic stress factors.
Your benefits at a glance:
Plant-available micronutrient complex: Contains a wide range of natural trace elements (including molybdenum, boron, and zinc) in organic form, which makes nutrient uptake through the roots easier.
Support for the nitrogen cycle: Provides organic carbon compounds that serve as energy sources for free-living, N2-fixing soil bacteria, thereby supporting the natural nutrient cycle.
Increased abiotic stress resilience: The natural osmoprotectants contained (e.g., mannitol and betaines) strengthen plants against environmental stress such as drought, heat, or high soil salinity.
Improvement of soil physiology: Alginates from seaweed promote the formation of stable soil aggregates (crumb structure), improve water retention, and create favorable living conditions for earthworms and mycorrhizal fungi.
Increased nutrient efficiency: Stimulates the biological release of nutrients in the soil, allowing existing organic fertilizer reserves to be used more efficiently by plants.
