Soil Regeneration and Enhancement for New-Build Gardens
Soil is critical to life on earth - it puts food on our plates, captures vast amounts of carbon, and is even the source of the antibiotics we use to fight diseases. However, decades of intensive farming practices and an increasing amount of development on both brownfield and greenfield sites is driving this vital habitat to the brink, making it particularly challenging to successfully design and establish new-build gardens.
Tangled Greens Liquid Kelp™ strengthens the soil structure, and can be of great benefit to developers and gardeners dealing with new-build gardens, which typically have compacted and challenging soil. Liquid Kelp™ is especially useful for dealing with heavy clay soil structures and is proven to work well when used alongside other natural methods such as mulching. Whether you are establishing fresh lawn turf, tidying up beds, or planting ornate tree specimens like acers and fruit trees, our Liquid Kelp™ biostimulant is perfect for improving the structure of soil molecules and introducing nutrients and bacteria culture to your soil.
How seaweed biostimulants can benefit new-build home gardens:
- Introduces suitable microorganisms to boost friendly bacteria levels in the soil microbiome. These bacteria also produce auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins (plant growth hormones), and metabolites to ward off root diseases.
- Includes salts and complex alginic acids, which combine with metal molecules to form bigger, heavier molecules. These attach to the soil particles, improving its overall structure and aiding better movement of water, air and nutrients, mitigating soil compaction from heavy machinery.
- Supplies new plants with macronutrients, micronutrients, and a variety of trace elements as well, to meet all of their nutritional needs.
- Establishes newly laid turf lawn, resulting in better success and less required watering as roots are better developed and plant cells are stronger and greener.
At Tangled Greens, we are on a mission to save our soil. By turning our home-grown kelp into natural biostimulants (using zero energy!) we can help to heal overworked and depleted land. Tangled Greens Liquid Kelp™ is a biostimulant and mild fertiliser, and is the first of its kind to be made entirely from Scottish hill water and brown kelp farmed sustainably off the shores of Loch Sunart. Brown kelp compounds and minerals are unique, differing from Asco (wrack-based) seaweed extract products.
