Minerals — Sea Water

What is Minerals?

Minerals is seawater, diluted and applied to soil and plants. Seawater contains 80+ trace minerals in ionic form — bioavailable and in ratios that co-evolved with land life over millions of years. Agricultural soils have lost enormous quantities of trace minerals over generations of cropping and erosion. Minerals addresses this directly.

What does it do?

Minerals replenishes the full spectrum of trace elements that plants and soil organisms need. Many plant enzymes require specific trace minerals as cofactors — without them, metabolic processes slow or fail. Flavor compounds in vegetables and fruit often correlate directly with trace mineral availability. Plants are selective absorbers — they take what they need.

How is it used

Collect clean ocean water away from harbors or discharge. Dilute 1:30 in non-chlorinated water. Apply as a soil drench or foliar spray. For those without ocean access, mineral-rich natural salt dissolved in water is a reasonable approximation.

When to use it

Most valuable during the reproductive phase when plants are building mineral-dense seeds and fruit. Also valuable at planting time to establish a full mineral environment from the start.
