Feather Meal | Organic Nitrogen Fertilizer for Healthy Plant Growth

Enhance your garden’s development with Feather Meal, a natural nitrogen fertilizer that releases nutrients slowly, making it perfect for sustainable and organic gardening.

What is feather meal?

Feather meal is derived from the feathers of poultry that have been raised primarily for meat.

The feathers are collected and processed under high temperatures and pressure, then finely ground into a powder. Once dried, they are packaged for use in fertilizer mixes, animal feed, and more.

Feather meal is an excellent nitrogen source. Some nitrogen is immediately available for your plants, while most is released more gradually.

With an NPK ratio of 11-0-0, Feather Meal is an abundant nitrogen source that is essential for plant development, particularly during the vegetation stage.

Benefits of Feather Meal

  • Promotes vigorous green growth

  • Enhances compost pile efficiency

  • Improves soil quality

How to use:

Apply 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of soil or coco substrate.

Keep in mind: it takes time for the meal to decompose, so apply it gently to your plants at a natural pace without overdoing it. Once added to your soil, the microorganisms – such as bacteria, nematodes, and fungi – play vital roles in breaking it down into forms of nitrogen that are usable by your plants.

If fertilizing plants in containers, mix one to two tablespoons per gallon of soil when blending a new batch of soil or coco. For existing houseplants or container vegetables, a small amount of 1-2 tablespoons mixed into the top inch of soil and thoroughly watered is sufficient.
