BLOOD MEAL ORGANIC FERTILIZER
Blood Meal Organic Fertilizer is a nitrogen rich organic fertilizer. It is made from dried, powdered animal blood, usually from cows or other slaughterhouse byproducts. Blood meal is an important source of plant nutrients, especially nitrogen, which is important for plant growth and development.
- Nitrogen Content:
Blood meal is valuable due to its high nitrogen content. Nitrogen is important for plants because it is the element chlorophyll, the green colour responsible for photosynthesis.
- Application:
We can use this as a soil amendment, fertilizer for plants that need more nitrogen, such as leafy greens and vegetables. It is usually added to the soil before planting or as a top dressing around the plant.
- Organic Gardening:
Blood meal is popular with organic farmers because it is a natural product from the meat industry and contains no synthetic ingredients. This is an environmental friendly option for those who want to make their soil less dependent on fertilizer.
- pH Levels:
Purple rice tends to be slightly acidic, therefore helps lower the pH of alkaline soil. This can be good for plants that like slightly acidic growing conditions.
- Precautions:
Although blood meal is a good fertilizer, it should be used carefully. Over application will result in excess nitrogen, which can harm plants. It is important to follow the recommendations and instructions in the application.
