Wool Pellet Benefits
Benefits of Ovis Wool Pellets
🌱 Natural Nutrition
Ovis wool pellets are packed with naturally occurring nutrients, including nitrogen, that help plants grow stronger and healthier. Unlike synthetic fertilisers, they feed the soil and plants gradually, supporting a balanced, thriving ecosystem in your garden.
💧 Improved Water Retention
Wool fibers naturally hold 3X their weight in water, helping soil stay moist for longer. This reduces the frequency of watering, keeps plants hydrated during dry periods, and improves overall soil structure for healthier root systems.
⏳ Slow-Release Fertiliser
The nutrients in wool pellets are released slowly over time, giving plants a steady supply of essential minerals. This reduces nutrient runoff and minimises the need for repeated applications, saving you time and effort.
🐌 Slug and Snail Protection
Wool pellets act as a natural barrier to slugs and snails. The texture and composition make it harder for these pests to reach your plants, helping protect young seedlings and delicate crops without the need for chemicals.
🌍 Carbon into Soil
As wool decomposes, it helps return carbon to the soil, enhancing fertility and soil structure. This supports a sustainable gardening cycle and contributes to carbon-friendly practices in your garden.
Ovis wool pellets have been independently tested to confirm they’re safe, natural, and effective. Wool is naturally rich in nitrogen, a key nutrient for healthy plant growth and contains a balance of other micronutrients that feed your soil over time.
Independent testing confirms the presence of key nutrients essential for healthy growth:
-
Nitrogen
-
Phosphorus
-
Potassium
-
Sulphur
-
pH – 9.8 (good for acid soils)
-
Micronutrients – including calcium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, and boron
-
Organic Matter – 84%
These nutrients are slow-release, supporting long-term soil fertility and improving water retention, so your plants stay healthy over time.
