Our Formula Is Backed by Science

Gives Plants the Right Food

Worm castings provide essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium without the risk of root burn, unlike synthetic fertilizers. Studies from Applied Soil Ecology confirm that worm castings enhance nutrient availability, promoting healthy plant growth. Study link.

Helps Plants Grow Taller and Fuller

Sea kelp contains natural growth hormones that help plants grow bigger and healthier. Research from the Journal of Agriculture and Food Research shows that seaweed-based fertilizers significantly boost plant growth, similar to synthetic fertilizers. Study link.

Makes the Soil Alive

The beneficial microbes in worm castings and fungi work together with plant roots to enhance nutrient absorption, creating a supportive environment for plant growth. Frontiers in Plant Science highlights how these microbes improve plant health and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers. 

Gives Extra Special Nutrients

Azomite provides over 70 trace minerals essential for plant health. The Grassland Science reports that these minerals are often missing in synthetic fertilizers but are crucial for optimal plant development.

Makes Plants Strong Against Bugs

Worm castings and fungi strengthen plants, acting as a natural defense against pests and diseases. Research in Phytopathology indicates that plants treated with vermicompost are more resistant to pathogens compared to those treated with chemical fertilizers.

Grows Strong Roots

Sea kelp’s natural hormones promote deep and robust root development, which is vital for house plants in pots. The Plant and Soil journal found that sea kelp treatments enhance root systems more effectively than synthetic root boosters. Study link.

Stops Nutrients from Washing Away

The organic matter in worm castings improves soil structure, preventing nutrients from leaching away when you water your plants. Environmental Science & Technology supports that worm castings reduce nutrient runoff, preserving soil health. 

Makes Plants Happy for a Long Time

Fungi and other organic elements in worm castings ensure a steady supply of nutrients over time. The Research Institute of Organic Agriculture shows that these components sustain plant health and growth far longer than quick-release synthetic fertilizers. Study link.

Good for the Environment

Using natural fertilizers like "Poop for Plants" is eco-friendly because it doesn’t contain harmful chemicals. Environmental Research Letters indicates that organic fertilizers reduce pollution and protect water sources better than synthetic options.
