This is the HIGHEST quality Kelp Extract Powder that I have ever used in over 15 years of growing and almost 10 years professionally. I buy it directly from the same manufacturer that “Kelp It Real” uses which means you’re getting the same exact product but cheaper. Sometimes I add free gifts and/or extra Kelp for repeat buyers or big orders. This listing is for an 8 oz pouch of 100% Organic Kelp Extract Powder which is a magical product that many growers don’t understand or realize how helpful Kelp Extract Powder really is. There isn’t a bad or wrong time to use Kelp Extract because plants have use for it from seed to harvest. FYI… Kelp produces its own rooting hormone and that’s why it’s highly recommended to use it during germination while soaking the seeds in 100mL of water, then add 0.1g Kelp and let soak for 24 hours and plant, as well as mix kelp with water and foliar feed the clones to keep them healthy, green, and boost rooting stage, and use with every single feeding to boost Microbial Life, at vitamins, minerals, amino acids, calcium, potassium, etc… KEY ADVANTAGES… ENHANCED NUTRIENT UPTAKE: Kelp extract contains over 70 vitamins and minerals, including essential macro- and micronutrients like nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. This helps plants absorb nutrients more efficiently from the soil. IMPROVED ROOT DEVELOPMENT: The growth hormones in kelp, such as cytokinins, promote better root growth and overall plant development. This can lead to stronger, more resilient plants. INCREASED RESISTANCE TO STRESS: Kelp extract helps plants manage stress from environmental factors like drought, temperature fluctuations, and pest attacks. This makes your plants more robust and less susceptible to damage. BOOSTED FLOWER AND FRUIT PRODUCTION: Using kelp extract can increase the size and quantity of flowers and fruits. This is particularly beneficial for fruiting plants and vegetables. Longer Shelf Life: Produce grown with kelp extract tends to last longer after harvesting, which is great for both home gardeners and commercial growers. ECO-FRIENDLY: Kelp is a sustainable and renewable resource. Using kelp extract is an environmentally friendly way to fertilize your garden without relying on synthetic chemicals 100% Organic Soluble Seaweed Kelp Extract Powder 0-0-14 is derived from fresh kelp (alga), ascophyllum nodosum that is natural, non-toxic, harmless and non-polluting rich in micro elements and has no synthetic plant growth regulators making it ideal fertilizer for organic agriculture. Soluble Seaweed Extract contains natural alginic acids and protein amino acids. It also provides nutrients in an immediate form available to plants during the rooting and fruiting stages. The mannitol in our seaweed further enables nutrient absorption already in the soil. Carbohydrates in Soluble Seaweed Extract break down easily, nourishing soil-dwelling bacteria that repair nitrogen and make it available for plant roots. Understanding the NPK and Composition: Potassium (K) 14%: This high level of potassium is vital for numerous plant processes, including photosynthesis, nutrient transport, and enzymatic functions, contributing significantly to overall plant health and resilience. Derived from Ascophyllum nodosum: Harvested from cold, nutrient-rich waters, this type of kelp is known for its abundance in natural growth stimulants and trace elements, crucial for plant vigor. USES… Suitable for all crops and applications including field crops, hydroponics, potting soil, vegetable and flower gardens, orchards and turf grass. ADVANTAGES… GREATER NUTRITIONAL VALUE: Rapidly complements nutrients and improves the quality of plants. BETTER ROOT SYSTEMS: Promotes the development of roots. HEALTHIER FOLIAGE AND FRUIT APPEARANCE: Thickens, enlarges and balances the leaf growth, supplies well-balanced crop nutrients, stimulates cell division, and improves the fruit set and blossoming; GREATER RESISTANCE TO STRESS: Helps plants endure environmental stress. IMPROVED SEED GERMINATION: Promotes the development of shoots. NATURAL SOIL CONDITIONER: Balances the fecundity of soil and restores soil conditions. AS FORMULATION: Soluble Seaweed Extract can be used not only in crops but also as a raw material to formulate many types of fertilizers. Small amounts of Soluble Seaweed Extract in common fertilizers will enhance the quality of the common fertilizer. APPLICATION: After being dissolved in neutral water, the seaweed extract can be applied as a foliar spray and through irrigation and fertigation systems including drip, trickle, center pivot. It suits any irrigation system. After being diluted, it may be mixed with other organic fertilizers or common fertilizers. FEEDING RATIOS: For Absolutely All Plant Species: DOSAGE: Mix 1/4 teaspoons of Kelp it Real per gallon of water. FREQUENCY: Apply with each watering during all growing stages.
