WHY USE Sea Breeze SEAWEED ?
Sea Breeze SEAWEED is a concentrated, standardised and high quality cold pressed seaweed liquid extract. It is a natural product derived from hand harvested Ascophyllum Nosodum and Laminaria seaweeds. It is processed in a food grade standard plant on the Atlantic coast using a unique cold process during which the temperature is never allowed to reach above 27C, which ensures all the nutrients, and goodness of the seaweed, is maintained intact. It's the equivalent of eating your vegetables raw rather than over cooking them.
HOW TO USE Sea Breeze SEAWEED
Sea Breeze SEAWEED can be applied as root drench, foliar spray or through the irrigation system. Suitable for ebb and flood systems, as well as overhead irrigation systems.
Foliar sprays are the most common method with a dilution rate of 1: 200 in water. The product must be well mixed in a small quantity of water before being added to the remainder of water in the sprayer. Apply as a fine spray to run off.

BENEFITS OF Sea Breeze SEAWEED
The benefits of using seaweed extracts as foliar sprays are well documented in scientific trials worldwide. For example, trials conducted within the EU funded ÉCLAIR programme showed among others, yield increases of 24% for carrots, 33% for 'little gem' lettuce, 14% for 'iceberg' lettuce, 15-25% for potato and 36% for red beet!
Sea Breeze SEAWEED due to the unique cold extraction process contains high levels of cytokinins and other naturally occurring growth stimulants (vitamins, aminoacids, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, alginate), as well as, macro and micronutrients. Regular applications of Sea Breeze SEAWEED will result in the following benefits:
- GROWTH STIMULATION
- SUGAR CONTENT INCREASE (2-3%)
- STIMULATES SEED GERMINATION and ROOT DEVELOPMENT
- BETTER RESISTANCE TO PESTS and DISEASES
- IMPROVED MOISTURE RETENTION BY THE PLANT TISSUES
Available in 1, 5 and 20 litre containers |
