When applied to the soil, mustard meal fertilizer is better distributed throughout the soil profile. This allows for a more uniform availability and quicker release of nutrients. It is also more rapidly consumed by microorganisms, quickly creating a healthy living soil. Bottom line the meal works faster than pellets when you are targeting soil-borne pathogens and fungi.
