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.
