I have a bunch of Spirulina powder I didn't know what to do with...naturally I figured it's gotta be great for plants. So I did a little digging, and I was BAFFLED!!!!!

I figured I'd post the study I came across here. Not too long of a read, exciting stuff.

Have been growing for years using a different species of wild crafted algae and getting incredible results. It can be also cultivated quite easy. Spirulina is not hard to grow but to generate volume can take time. If you want in the spring I can get you some to try!

I have been playing with this for while, it was great to see all the data collected. In a greenhouse, indoor or even outdoor setting you can grow you fertilizer!!!

Yeah, i did that too. Mixed it into my soil tho. Like 2 cups into 20 gallons because it aint cheap. Haven’t had any negative results.

They were happy and vigorous but, all in all, considering the price, kelp is good too.
