Bonnie finds the solution to combat Autumn’s wet conditions using Seasol’s Plant Health and Soil Improver Granules when you don’t want to add more water.

• Consistently wet autumn conditions can lead to saturated soils that negatively affect plant health and growth.
• Waterlogged soil may develop an unpleasant smell, which can indicate poor soil aeration and unhealthy root conditions.
• Common symptoms of excess moisture include flattened plants, poor growth, yellow mottled foliage and soft, mushy leaves.
• These symptoms are often signs that plant roots are stressed or beginning to rot due to lack of oxygen in the soil.
• Removing mulch from around the base of affected plants can help excess moisture evaporate more quickly from the soil surface.
• Granular soil treatments are useful in saturated conditions because they activate using existing soil moisture without adding extra water.
• Seasol Plant Health and Soil Improver is designed to help reduce stress symptoms and improve overall soil condition in wet conditions.
• The added zeolite in the product helps retain nutrients near the root zone, while encouraging beneficial microbial activity and improved airflow to roots.
