Premium Organic Kelp Foliar Spray for Healthier Plants
Kelp Mist is a concentrated seaweed foliar spray that delivers ocean nutrients directly to your plant leaves. Unlike traditional soil fertilizers that can take days or weeks to show results, foliar feeding provides nutrients almost immediately through leaf absorption.
Harvested from sustainable ocean kelp beds, this organic seaweed extract contains over 70 trace minerals, natural plant growth hormones, and vitamins that you just can't get from standard fertilizers. The result? Plants that use nutrients more efficiently, tolerate drought and heat stress better, and develop stronger overall health.
What makes Kelp Mist special is the refillable system. Buy the ready-to-spray bottle once, then refill at home with our concentrated formula. It's more economical, reduces plastic waste, and gives you control over dilution strength based on your plants' needs. The bottles are 100% recyclable and eco-friendly—sustainability matters to us.
Why Foliar Spray Works So Well
Plants don't just absorb nutrients through their roots. Leaves have tiny pores called stomata that can take in water, nutrients, and even dissolved minerals. Foliar feeding—spraying nutrients directly on leaves—bypasses soil issues entirely and delivers nutrition exactly where photosynthesis happens.
This is especially valuable when:
- Soil pH is locking up nutrients and roots can't access them
- Plants are stressed from transplanting, drought, or heat
- You need quick results to correct deficiencies
- Root systems are damaged or underdeveloped
- You want to supplement soil feeding with leaf nutrition
Kelp foliar spray is one of the most effective forms of foliar feeding because seaweed naturally contains compounds that help leaves absorb and utilize nutrients better.
The Power of Ocean Minerals
70+ Trace Minerals and Vitamins
- Ocean-derived micronutrients missing from most soils
- Chelated for easy plant absorption
- Improves overall plant metabolism
- Enhances chlorophyll production
- Supports enzyme function
Kelp absorbs the full spectrum of ocean minerals while growing. When you spray Kelp Mist on leaves, you're delivering these rare trace elements directly to where plants need them. Iron, zinc, manganese, boron—nutrients that are often deficient in soil but critical for plant health.
Natural Growth Hormones
- Cytokinins promote cell division and growth
- Auxins improve root development
- Gibberellins enhance stem elongation
- Betaines improve stress tolerance
- All in natural, plant-available forms
Seaweed naturally produces growth-promoting compounds that help plants respond to their environment. These aren't synthetic hormones—they're the same compounds plants recognize and use in nature. Kelp foliar spray delivers them in concentrations that support, not force, natural growth.
Enhanced Drought Tolerance
- Improves cellular water retention
- Reduces water loss through leaves
- Strengthens stress response systems
- Helps plants recover from heat damage
- Particularly effective during dry periods
This is where kelp spray really shines. The natural compounds help plants manage water more efficiently at the cellular level. During drought or heat stress, plants sprayed with kelp show significantly better resilience. They wilt less, recover faster, and maintain growth when untreated plants struggle.
Soil Microbe Activation
- Stimulates beneficial bacteria growth
- Enhances mycorrhizal fungi activity
- Improves nutrient cycling in soil
- Supports overall soil health
- Works synergistically with other fertilizers
When you spray kelp on leaves, some inevitably drips to the soil. That's actually beneficial—the ocean compounds feed soil microbes, creating a more active and diverse soil ecosystem. This is why Kelp Mist works so well alongside microbial fertilizers like Plant Juice and Bloom Juice.
How to Use Kelp Mist Foliar Spray
Simple Foliar Feeding Routine
Foliar spraying is easy once you understand the basics. Timing and technique matter more than quantity.
Simply spray leaves until lightly misted. Focus on undersides where stomata are more concentrated. Apply early morning or evening when stomata are open and sun won't cause burning. Use weekly for maintenance or 2-3 times weekly during stress periods.
Mix Kelp Mist Concentrate according to bottle instructions (typically 1-2 tablespoons per spray bottle). You can adjust strength—use stronger for stressed plants, lighter for maintenance. Refill your spray bottle at home to save money and reduce waste.
Early morning (6-8am) or evening (after 6pm) when temperatures are cooler. Avoid midday heat—water droplets can magnify sunlight and burn leaves. Spray when no rain is expected for at least 2 hours so nutrients absorb properly.
Transplant shock: Spray immediately after transplanting and daily for the first week. Heat stress: Spray 2-3 times weekly during heat waves. Pest recovery: Spray after pest treatment to help plants recover. Nutrient deficiency: Spray 2-3 times weekly until symptoms improve.
When Kelp Foliar Spray Makes the Biggest Difference
Transplant Shock Recovery
Moving plants stresses them. Roots get damaged, water uptake drops, and growth stalls. Kelp spray provides nutrients through leaves while roots recover. The natural growth hormones help plants adjust faster. Many gardeners see transplanted plants perk up within 24-48 hours of kelp application.
Drought and Heat Stress
During dry spells or heat waves, even well-watered plants struggle. Kelp's betaines and other compounds help cells retain water and maintain function under stress. Spray preventively before heat arrives, or rescue struggling plants during tough conditions. The difference in resilience is remarkable.
Correcting Nutrient Deficiencies
Yellowing leaves, slow growth, poor flowering—sometimes these aren't fertilizer problems but absorption problems. Maybe your soil pH is off, or roots are damaged. Foliar feeding with kelp spray bypasses these issues entirely, delivering nutrients directly to leaves where deficiency symptoms appear.
Boosting Fruit and Flower Production
The trace minerals and growth hormones in kelp support blooming and fruiting. Many gardeners spray kelp during bud formation and see increased flower production. For vegetables, regular kelp spraying often means better fruit set and larger harvests.
Sustainable Seaweed, Eco-Friendly System
Sustainably Harvested Kelp: Our kelp comes from managed ocean beds where harvesting is carefully controlled. Kelp grows rapidly—up to 2 feet per day—making it one of the most renewable resources on Earth. Sustainable harvesting actually promotes healthy kelp forests.
