A naturally occurring soil conditioner, Calcified Seaweed is a red seaweed which grows on the seabed in a coral-like structure. Once applied to soil, Calcified Seaweed quickly breaks down and gradually releases calcium, magnesium carbonate and other trace elements.

It is this activity which helps plants and crops to develop stronger roots, promoting vigorous plant growth. Organic, Calcified Seaweed will last in the soil for a longer period than finely ground lime leading to a gradual, prolonged effect on a soil’s pH. Rich in minerals, it neutralises acidic soil and can also be used to dress lawns in early spring to improve soil and grass condition. To apply to soil, spread over the desired area and lightly rake or hoe in. Just a single application every three years will normally prove sufficient to maintain these benefits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutralises acid soils and breaks down heavy soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack size: 2.5kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong lasting, apply every 3 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages beneficial bacteria for stronger roots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for outdoor use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRead directions carefully before use and do not exceed the recommended application rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a dry place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep out of reach from children, pets, and foodstuffs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid lodging product on leaves and stems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot suitable for use with ericaceous plants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vitax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56082200166725,"sku":"1006902","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/7458\/1061\/files\/0722ec3a-Vitax-Organic-Calcified-Seaweed-2.5kg-1.jpg?v=1761657397","url":"https:\/\/www.gatesgardencentre.co.uk\/products\/vitax-calcified-seaweed-2-5kg","provider":"Gates Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
