Alfalfa Meal – Organic Soil Amendment
Slow-Release Nitrogen • Growth Hormones • Microbial Booster
Sustainably sourced from certified organic growers, our Alfalfa Meal is made from whole, deeply rooted alfalfa plants that naturally pull minerals and nutrients from up to 100 feet below the surface. This concentrated plant material provides a rich, balanced source of slow-release nitrogen, amino acids, and natural growth hormones that support vigorous plant growth and long-term soil health.
Why Use Alfalfa Meal?
🌱 Slow-Release Nitrogen
Provides a steady source of nitrogen in the form of proteins and amino acids, supporting healthy plant growth without leaching or burning.
🌿 Rich in Protein & Amino Acids
Builds strong cells, tissues, and enzymes essential for plant development, improving vitality and overall plant structure.
🌾 Natural Growth Hormones
Contains auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins that stimulate root and shoot growth, improve nutrient uptake, and enhance plant development.
🌞 Triacontanol for Performance
A rare plant growth regulator found in high levels in alfalfa. Boosts photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and plant resilience to stress like drought and heat.
🧬 Supports Soil Microbes & Protozoa
Feeds beneficial microorganisms, including protozoa, which break down organic matter and release plant-available nutrients, improving soil structure and fertility.
🛡️ Pest & Disease Resistance
Naturally occurring saponins deter insect feeding, while coumarins inhibit fungal pathogens—helping strengthen plant immunity over time.
How to Use
In the Garden
Apply up to 375g per 1m² (10ft²), up to four times per year.
Protozoan Infusion
Combine 75ml kelp meal + 150ml alfalfa meal in 5 gallons of chlorine-free water. Brew with aeration for 48–60 hours until protozoa are dominant. Observe under microscope before application.
Topdressing
Apply 60–120ml (¼–½ cup) per plant monthly or 15–30ml (1–2 tbsp) per 4L (1 gal) of soil. Mix into the top 5cm (2") of soil.
Soil Premix
Use 60–90ml per 4L (¼–⅜ cup per gal) of soil. For larger mixes, add up to 10kg (22lbs) per cubic yard of soil.
