Tri-Kelp™

Soluble Organic Seaweed Powder

Different kelp species have unique effects upon plant health and crop potential depending upon their nutrient & hormonal profile. Tri-Kelp™ from NTS offers a unique formulation of the three most popular growth promoting seaweed species. Laminaria, Sargassum and Ascophyllum nodosum are the three components of a new 100% soluble seaweed powder, which promises to redefine the concept of cost-effective kelp.

Benefits

• • • • Australian Certified Organic (ACO) Registered Farm Input 456AI.
      • Involves a unique freeze-drying process which increases surface area and aids rapid dissolvability.
      • Laminaria may assist plants in the recovery from previous viruses.
      • Sargassum is rich in alginic acid, to boost water retention.
      • Ascophyllum nodosum contains very high levels of cytokinins and features the highest mineral content of any kelp.
      • Tri-Kelp™ can improve soil conditions and enhance water retention.
      • Improves both growth and flowering and is a powerful anti-stress tool.

Instructions

Tri-Kelp™ is most easily dissolved when sprinkled slowly
into a tank/bucket with vigorous agitation/hand mixing.
Additional applications can be made immediately prior
to or following stress periods such as frost or drought. It
is preferable to increase the frequency of applications
rather than the concentration of the solution. Where
higher water rates are required for good foliar coverage,
do not exceed maximum product rate per hectare.
Sensitive foliage or plants should be test sprayed prior
to full scale application. Frequencies are a guideline
only and can be adjusted according to farm practices
and/or in conjunction with crop monitoring. Ensure
suitable spray conditions (e.g. temperature, humidity,
wind-speed), prior to foliar application. Compatibility
and/or performance cannot be guaranteed when
combined with other products. Jar test for compatibility
and spray test on small area before wide-spread use.

Storage & Handling

 Read safety directions before use.
– Store in a cool dry area out of direct sunlight. Do not
pre-mix or store in diluted form.
