GardenPro Liquids with Kelp Extract

Used for thousands of years by seaside dwellers for food, agriculture and more recently for medicinal and cosmetic purposes, kelp packs a powerful punch by providing a storehouse of health and nutritional benefits.

Although the kelp family embodies over 30 genera, the most widely researched species is a type of brown algae, Ascophyllum nodosum (Norwegian kelp, knotted kelp) which hails from our very own Canadian waters.

Found exclusively in the northern hemisphere, it grows in the Atlantic inter-tidal zone from the Arctic circle to the North eastern United States and along the coast of Northern Europe. This area endures the most extreme tidal activity in the world, with fluctuations between tides in the Bay of Fundy as much as 14 meters (48 feet).
As a result, Ascophyllum nodosum has developed unique survival strategies to withstand severe environmental challenges, from lying in near freezing, salty seawater on the bottom of the ocean, to basking in intense sun during the lowest tides of summer.

The use of the kelp extract may potentially equate to some astonishing benefits to plant growth and vigour including larger, more abundant roots and thicker stems with more lateral branching, resulting in a larger plant.

Also possible, is increased fruit size and sweetness with a longer lasting shelf life and overall faster establishment. As well, the plant is potentially more capable of fighting off disease and pest attacks, tolerating environmental hardships such as extreme hot or cold temperatures, drought and excessive salt levels in soil.
