Slow-Release Nitrogen for Lush, Balanced Growth

Feed your garden with the long-lasting power of organic nitrogen. The Soil Sorcerer’s Granulated Feather Meal (11-0-0) is a natural, slow-release fertilizer ideal for promoting healthy green growth, steady vegetative development, and long-term soil vitality. Sourced from gently processed poultry feathers, this nitrogen-rich amendment breaks down gradually, making it perfect for sustainable gardening systems and no-till soil building.

 What is Feather Meal?

Feather meal is a byproduct of poultry processing that’s steam-treated and ground into a fine granule. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, granulated feather meal releases nitrogen over several weeks to months, feeding soil microbes and plants without burning roots or leaching away.

Benefits of Using Feather Meal:

High Nitrogen (11%) – Promotes lush, dark green foliage and strong stems

Long-Lasting – Feeds for 8–12 weeks or longer, depending on microbial activity

Supports Microbial Life – Encourages healthy bacterial populations essential for nutrient cycling

No Synthetic Additives – 100% natural and OMRI-listed organic input

Perfect for Vegetables, Leafy Greens, Herbs & Grasses

How to Use:

For Soil Building:

Apply 1–2 cups per 10 square feet and mix into the top 2–4 inches of soil prior to planting.

For Established Plants:

Use 2–3 tablespoons per plant every 6–8 weeks as a side-dress.

Water in well to activate microbial breakdown and nutrient release.

In Potting Mixes:

Add 1 tablespoon per gallon of soil for indoor plants and containers.

Best Practices:

Combine with compost or worm castings for a more balanced blend.

Ideal for nitrogen-hungry crops like lettuce, kale, corn, brassicas, and cannabis during vegetative growth.
