Nutri-Kelp™ Powder


Citrus loves kelp, the hormonal stimulation improves yield and quality.

The world's most potent seaweed fertiliser, concentrated into a 100% soluble powder.

Derived from the clean, cold waters of Nova Scotia, this is the highest analysis kelp product in Australia. Available in a 100% soluble powder, which reduces transport costs, this seaweed fertiliser can be used through irrigation or as a highly productive foliar fertiliser. Kelp is a natural source of auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins, and these ingredients, in conjunction with the comprehensive range of trace elements, amino acids and chelating agents found in kelp, can provide many benefits. Kelp also contains complex carbohydrates which are a powerful microbial stimulant - the fungal component of the soil can be boosted with Nutri-Kelp™ Powder.

Application Rates:

  • Foliar: Small crops:
    600 - 750 gram per hectare.
    Orchards: 600 gram - 1.4 kg per hectare
    Broadacre:100 - 200 gram per hectare.
  • Dilution Rates:
    1 gram per litre or 100 grams per 100 litres.

Note:

  • Suggested rates and dosages are approximate and may vary depending on the climatic region, soil type and fertility. 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. Lower dilution rates should be applied to less dense foliage. Increase to higher rates as foliage matures.
  • Nutri-Kelp is compatible with most insecticides, fungicides and fertilisers, but, when chemical interaction is unknown, a jar test is used. pH adjustments may be required with acidic mixtures.
  • Excellent storage capacity. However, open containers or plastic bags should be closed and stored in a dry location away from sunlight. Avoid spillages on floor, as product becomes very slippery when mixed with water, and may create a hazard.
