Blood Meal Fertilizer – 100% Natural Dried, Ground Animal Blood, High-Nitrogen Feed for Leafy Vegetables, Lawns, Roses & Fruit Plants (خون کی کھاد)

What Is Blood Meal Fertilizer? (خون کی کھاد کیا ہے؟)

Meaning of Blood Meal Fertilizer in Urdu is “خون کی کھاد” خشک کر کے پیسے ہوئے جانوروں کے خون سے بنی نائٹروجن سے بھرپور قدرتی کھاد. It is made by drying and grinding blood collected as a by-product of the meat industry, and it is valued because the blood’s protein holds a lot of nitrogen, the nutrient behind green, leafy growth. It is 100% natural and made in Pakistan.

The meal is concentrated, so a small amount goes a long way. Drying hardens the protein, so the meal is slow to wet at first. Soil microbes then digest it and release nitrogen over weeks. It has a distinct smell, especially when damp.

Why Does Your Garden Need It?

Pakistan’s heat burns organic matter out of garden mitti (مٹی) quickly, and surveys of Punjab soils report that nearly all samples are poor in organic matter. Monsoon rain then washes nitrogen out of sandy beds, while heavy clay soils hold it unevenly. Leafy vegetables, lawns and roses use a lot of nitrogen, and pale, yellowing leaves with slow growth are the usual sign that they are running short. A concentrated organic nitrogen source tops up the supply without synthetic urea.

What Does It Do for Your Plants?

• What it is. The USDA’s agricultural thesaurus describes it as dried, ground animal blood made into meal (USDA NAL thesaurus). It is generally about 12% nitrogen by weight, with only trace phosphorus and potassium. Treat the figure as a general average, not a lab test of each batch.
• Gives nitrogen for lush, leafy growth. Nitrogen drives green foliage in spinach, coriander, lettuce, lawns and roses.
• Releases over weeks. The nitrogen is locked in protein that microbes break down gradually.
• Can wake up a compost heap. It is sometimes used as a composting activator.
• May deter some animals. Some gardeners spread it to put off rabbits, but the evidence is mixed and the smell can attract dogs, so do not rely on it.

Results depend on your soil, your plants and your watering.

Where Should You Use It and How Much?

These amounts are cautious starting points, based on typical extension guidance for a roughly 12% nitrogen meal. Concentrated nitrogen burns easily, so start low.

Repeat no sooner than every 2–3 months. Do not use it on seedlings or around beans, peas and other legumes, because legumes make their own nitrogen.

How Is It Different from Other Soil Feeds?

Figures are typical values quoted by different sources, and phosphorus and potassium may be given as elements or as oxides, so compare them only roughly.

How Does It Work?

Plants need nitrogen to build leaves, chlorophyll and proteins. According to Wikipedia, blood meal is generally about 12% nitrogen by weight with trace amounts of phosphorus and potassium, which makes it one of the highest non-synthetic nitrogen sources. The nitrogen is locked in protein. Drying makes the protein particles hard and slow to wet, so soil microbes digest them gradually and release nitrogen in forms roots can absorb. Because the nitrogen is concentrated, too much can burn roots or leaves, and heavy use can make soil slightly more acidic over time. Unlike bone meal, which supplies phosphorus, blood meal supplies almost only nitrogen.

How Do You Use It?

Before You Start

Check whether your plants really need nitrogen: pale or yellowing older leaves and slow growth are the usual signs. If you can, test your soil first. Measure the meal rather than guessing, and start with the low amounts above.

Step by Step

In Beds and Lawns

1. Water the soil lightly so it is moist.
2. Spread about 50 g per square metre evenly.
3. Rake it into the top 5–10 cm of a bed, or water a lawn well so the meal washes down.
4. Do not repeat for at least 2–3 months.

Around Roses and Fruit Trees

1. Scatter about 50 g per square metre around the drip line, away from the trunk or stems.
2. Scratch it lightly into the soil.
3. Water well, and apply before flowering.

In Pots

1. Measure 1 teaspoon for a 6-inch pot, or 1 tablespoon for a 12-inch pot.
2. Mix it into the top layer of soil and water well.
3. Repeat no sooner than every 2–3 months.

Safety and Storage

Wear gloves and a dust mask when pouring, and wash your hands afterwards. It is a fertiliser and not for eating. The smell can draw dogs and other animals, so cover it with soil, keep pets away from freshly treated areas and keep it out of reach of children. Store it dry and tightly closed.
