Kelp is an abundant, sustainable, nutrient rich resource for your houseplants and gardens and a key ingredient in our plant care tonics!
Around 23 million years ago, ancient Kelp Forests began to thrive in shallow oceans and continue to grow throughout the waters surrounding our earth today.
Kelp is a nutrient-rich organism containing potent concentrations of trace minerals, 60 micronutrients (including calcium, magnesium, sulphur, manganese, copper, iron and zinc, a virtual powerhouse! Kelp is also one of the fastest growing protists in the world, reaching an amazing 18 inches in a single day!
We source our kelp from the cold waters of the North Atlantic and extract all that goodness into every bottle of our concentrated plant care tonics as it is high in naturally occurring phytohormones.
What’s a photohormone?
Photohormones are plant molecules that acts as a natural growth stimulant. In other words, it’s a chemical messenger that coordinates the cellular activities of your plants telling them to grow!
Not only is kelp wonderfully beneficial for our houseplant babies and edible gardens, but it's highly nourishing to human cellular activity too. Algin (extracted from kelp) is a natural emulsifying agent and can be found in everyday products like shampoo, toothpaste, and ice cream! Kelp in the form of sushi, salads, and toasted nori snacks offer our bodies a wealth of essential nutrients just like it does for our green babes!
Kelp helps fight climate change by absorbing CO2 from seawater, while also creating less acidity in the surrounding water. Kelp forests are sanctuaries for sea life, many of which are endangered. Their roots are holdfasts to sea rocks which slow down currents that then provides ideal environments for more delicate sea life.
Thank you kelp, you magical algae you!
We're so excited to offer our Sacred Plant Care Tonics and to share more about connecting you with our natural world through plant life. We realize we are a small company with big dreams of making our world a better place, but believe that every bottle of concentrated tonic is one tiny step closer to that reality. Thank you for your support friends!
With love,
Karina and Team SE
