Understanding the 10-7-7 NPK Ratio
Marine Cuisine®'s 10-7-7 NPK formula delivers the three essential macronutrients in a growth-forward ratio:
- 10% Nitrogen (N): High nitrogen drives vigorous vegetative growth, lush green foliage, and strong stems
- 7% Phosphorus (P): Promotes robust root development, abundant flowering, and fruit set
- 7% Potassium (K): Supports overall plant health, disease resistance, drought tolerance, and stress recovery
The higher nitrogen content makes Marine Cuisine® particularly effective for plants in active vegetative growth and those needing a nutritional boost.
Premium Ocean-Based Ingredients
Marine Cuisine® is truly Seafood for Your Garden™ - packed with the finest ocean-derived ingredients:
- Crab Meal: Rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and chitin - a natural compound that supports soil health and may suppress harmful nematodes
- Shrimp Meal: Excellent source of nitrogen, calcium, and chitin for strong plant structure and soil biology
- Seabird Guano: Highly concentrated source of nitrogen and phosphorus - one of nature's most potent organic fertilizers
- Kelp: Natural source of micronutrients, growth hormones, and trace elements that stimulate plant growth and stress resistance
- Mineral Plant Foods: Blended minerals for complete, balanced macro and micronutrient delivery
Dual-Action Feeding: Quick Boost + Slow Release
Marine Cuisine® delivers two types of nutrition simultaneously:
- Quick Boost: Immediately available nutrients provide a rapid response for hungry or stressed plants
- Slow Release: Organic ingredients break down gradually, feeding plants continuously over weeks and months
- Result: Plants get what they need now, with sustained nutrition that reduces the frequency of reapplication
The Power of Kelp
Kelp is one of the most nutrient-dense plants on earth, providing:
- Over 60 trace minerals and micronutrients
- Natural plant growth hormones (cytokinins and auxins)
- Alginic acid that improves soil structure and water retention
- Enhanced stress resistance against heat, drought, and frost
- Improved seed germination and root development
The Benefits of Chitin (Crab & Shrimp Meal)
The chitin naturally present in crab and shrimp meal provides unique soil health benefits:
- Stimulates beneficial soil microorganisms

- Improves soil structure over time
- Adds calcium for strong cell walls and disease resistance
