What Are Organic Nutrients?
Organic inputs and fertilizers are a great nutrient source for soils and other planting media. Organic matter, such as fish scraps, plants, manure, eggshells, fruit, etc., allow both readily-available and slowly-released nutrients as Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), Boron (B), Zinc (Zn), and other trace elements. Organic nutrients decrease the loss of nutrients to runoff and increase ecosystem biodiversity.
Organic nutrients also improve soil and media texture, which increases the capacity for soils and media to retain, or hold, moisture longer and increase the available space and surface area for microorganisms (e.g., mycorrhizal fungi and other rhizome microbes) activity in nutrient exchange to plant roots.
Sustainable Nutes offers all-natural, organic and sustainable plant food solutions. No chemicals, just plant and fish scrap materials, and other natural proteins and vitamins.

Our ingredients all come from plants, untreated fish, black soldier fly larvae, worm castings, and molasses. They are from sustainable sources like organic-certified farms or wild-caught fishing industry scraps.

total Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Manganese (Mn), Molybdenum (Mo), Iron (Fe), Sulfur (S), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), and Boron (B).
All formulations are supplied with a product Guaranteed Analysis certified by a Certificate of Analysis (CoA), and are checked in a timely manner to ensure the consistency of quality and effectiveness of products.
WILL SUSTAINABLE NUTES HELP MYCORRHIZAL MICROBIAL NETWORKS IN SOIL OR PLANTS?
Yes. The associations between roots “rhiza” and fungi “myco” are called mycorrhizae. We produce it through aerobic digestion and fermentation of organic matter. The raw organic materials and sugars combine to invigorate endomycorhizal and ectomycorhizal micro-organisms. Basically, itʻs what they eat and drink to help get strong to perform the necessary metabolic functions.
