Maxsea 16-16-16 is a kelp-based fertilizer safe to use on many types of carnivorous plants (see exceptions below). It is so gentle it can even be used on live sphagnum moss! Maxsea comes in powder form and is best used as a foliar fertilizer. Foliar feeding is beneficial if the plants aren’t catching enough bugs on their own as it helps to make up for lost nutrients. To foliar feed carnivorous plants and boost growth, mix 1/4 of a teaspoon per gallon of water and lightly mist leaves with it every 3-4 weeks.
Description
Each packet contains 1 tablespoon of Maxsea which is enough to make 12 gallons of fertilizer at the recommended strength for carnivorous plants.
Species Exceptions:
We have found the following carnivorous plants to be especially sensitive even when applying 1/4 strength Maxsea fertilizer. These species may benefit from further dilution or using another feeding method: Drosera sessilifolia, Drosera slackii.

This came nicely packed; firmly taped to the invoice paper. Excited to see the results with this. Other than that, the only thing that botherd mi was how late it came in. But will still be ordering more from Curious Plant in the near Future!
