Seasol products for Landscaping and Gardening
- Regular application (every 2-4 weeks) during the growing season as a general plant tonic can be used to enhance productivity.
- Targeted application at specific growth stages can be used to provide increased resistance to the impacts of cold or heat.
- Application with or immediately after any fertiliser application can be used to aid nutrient uptake and utilisation.
- Post-harvest application can be used to help plants store nutrients and energy reserves for the following season.
Production benefits in detail:
Both soil and foliar applications of Seasol Plus and Seasol Plus Calcium can be used to optimise soil conditions that help facilitate root growth, while also stimulating the plant’s metabolism and helping to control the effects of plant stress.
- Start Early. Seasol products stimulate plant metabolism in ways that appear to prepare the plant to better cope with many stress problems. For this reason, the earlier in the transplant process you begin to apply Seasol products the better.
- Spray timing. Seasol products provide significant stress reduction in as little as 5 – 7 days between application and transplanting. The use of regular foliar sprays will help minimise transplant shock.
- Soil drenching. In the period prior to transplanting, a soil drench with Seasol products will help prepare the root system and soil to better tolerate the stress of transplanting.
- Stress Mitigation. While Seasol products provide significant protection against stresses such as heat and frost, it is important not to forget that the plant will be experiencing high levels of stress for some weeks after the move. Regular foliar sprays on a fortnightly basis will help facilitate establishment and adaption to the new conditions
