Case of 4 Gallons Medina 0-0-1 Liquid Seaweed is a concentrated extract derived from the Ascophyllum nodosum with humic and fulvic acids. These extracts contain natural growth hormones along with over 70 trace minerals, micronutrients, and vitamins. Liquid seaweed is used to enhance and stimulate root growth of the plant. Helps germination, root development, improves yield and quality. Root stimulator and transplant aid.
Benefits of Liquid Seaweed include:
- Over 70 Trace Minerals, Micronutrients and Vitamins
- Improved overall plant hardiness
- Improved stress resistance from pests
- Better tolerance to frost and drought
- Improved yield and quality
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Disclaimer of Warranties: Buyer assumes all responsibility for proper use of this product.
SEE FULL DIRECTIONS FOR USE ON PRODUCT LABEL. Always follow the instructions on the product label.
Always read and follow label directions for all products. Information here is not a substitute for directions on the product labels.
Seed, Root and Transplant Solution:
- Lightly moisten seeds or soak roots with a solution of 1 ounce (2 tbs) of liquid seaweed in 1 gallon of water.
- After planting seeds or transplants, soak the entire root zone with a solution of 1 ounce (2 tbs) in 1 gallon of water.
Foliar Sprays:
Foliar sprays are best made during the morning or evening (cooler time of day). Use a solution of 1 ounce (2 tbs) per gallon and apply a fine mist until solution drips off the plants. The application can be repeated every 1 to 2 weeks during the entire growing season.
Lawns, Flower Beds and Vegetable Gardens:
Apply a solution of 2 ounces (4 tbs) per gallon of water on an area of 1000 square feet of area.
FOLIAR FEEDING & DRENCHING OVERVIEW
Foliar feeding has been used since 1844 when it was discovered that plant nutrients could be leached from leaves by rain. Experiments then proved that nutrients could also enter the plant through the foliage.
There are ways of stimulating the natural processes in the soil and in the plants by spraying the foliage which can provide some significant advantages. When fertilizer nutrients are sprayed directly on the foliage, immediate results can often be seen because the nutrients and micronutrients are immediately available to the plant when taken in through the foliage.
Important Information for Foliar Spraying
-
Less is usually better in foliar sprays. Light, regularly applied sprays are generally better than heavy, infrequent blasts. Mists of liquids are better than big drops, unless you are also trying to control pests. The exception is spraying heavy enough to get the material to run off plants and also drench into the soil.
-
High humidity increases leaf ability to absorb sprays (70% + relative humidity) . Spraying on damp mornings (before 9 am) or evenings (after 6 pm) will increase the effectiveness of the spray. Small openings (stomata) on the leaves close up during the heat of the day so that moisture within the plant is preserved. The best time of day to spray for pest control is late afternoon. Daybreak is usually best for foliar feeding. Spraying during the coolest part of the day is the key (65 to 85° - 70° is a good overall temp). Spraying during a light, misty type rain is ideal. Spray when the wind speed is 5 mph or less.
-
Young foliage seems to absorb nutrients better than old, hard foliage. Therefore, foliar feeding is most effective during the periods of new growth on plants.
-
Foliar feeding will increase the storage life of food crops. It will also increase cold and heat tolerance of landscape plants and food crops.
-
Foliar feeding should not be used alone. Soil feeding is also needed to keep the roots from getting lazy.
-
It's a highly efficient and timely method of applying needed and critical plant nutrients.
-
Very effective in compensating for soil or environmentally caused nutrient deficiencies.
-
Should be timed to provide needed nutrients during the yield potential determining timeframe of the each plant's development stages.
-
Crops that are nutritionally sound will be the most responsive to foliar feeding.
-
Crops under heat or moisture stress show less response to foliar applications due to lower leaf and and stem absorption rates.
-
Recovery from cold growing conditions and herbicide stress can be hastened with proper foliar applications.
Drenching
This is the application of the same foliar spray mixes into the soil. This is an especially effective technique when applying beneficial organisms, such as mycorrhizal fungi, which require contact with roots to activate.
