LITTLE & OFTEN

This "Little & Often" application approach keeps the plants and, where possible, immediate soil environment 'topped-up' with all the beneficial components of our seaweed extracts.

This helps ensure that a suppressive soil is built up around the plants roots. It also strengthens the natural resistance mechanisms of the plants themselves, thereby leading to improved plant health and productivity. Research has shown that plants that are regularly exposed to low levels of our seaweed extracts establish bigger and deeper roots and are faster growing.

They also develop bigger and greener shoots that are more resistant to stresses from pests, diseases and adverse weather conditions, thus allowing the plants to realise more of their yield and quality potential.

Our research has clearly demonstrated that the best way to harness the benefits of the 5 Principle Effects is to apply our seaweed extract products at low levels and on a frequent basis.

SOIL & LEAF

To achieve faster crop establishment our seaweed extracts must be applied to the soil around the roots. Hydroponics, or drenching roots every week via a fertigation or some such other system, provides excellent results.

Once plants are well established, regular weekly applications to the foliage should commence. These will improve the plants natural resistance mechanisms making them better able to fight off foliar diseases, sap-sucking insect attacks and to combat the negative effects of adverse weather.

Applications to the foliage and roots will also enable plants to protect and maintain their photosynthetic apparatus during periods of stress allowing for better light utilisation and so greater energy for growth and productivity.
