Novice grower here im seeking some experienced growers insight on seaweed extract as a foliar spray or nutrient additive for cannabis.
I done a side by side study awhile back on two outdoor pots in the midde of summer one given a mist and water twice a week with seaweed and standard nutrients the other without it added and i seen a considerable diffrence in growth height and and general health it also tolerated heat alot better with seaweed. And i was just wondering if its is worth at all adding it my indoor setup? How did you add it and what benefits did you see signicantly? And go..

Thanks Rere

By sea weed im assuming you mean sea kelp. Kelp is a sea weed but not all see weeds are kelp.
I like using sea kelp as a foiler spray and in my medium. It contains 11 of the eighteen trace minerals that our plants love.
I use as a foilage spray all the way into the second week into flowering.
I can tell you if you want to use it as a soil amendment it works great as well. Theres some really great kelp products out there. I use thrive-alive but thats just because it's what i know. I also like to add some down to earth kelp to my soil. And then theres always Kelpforless.com. I just placed my first order with them and haven't tried there stuff but a lot of good growers on this sight love it. I hope this helps a little bit :bigjoint:

Sweet. Do you have a link. That's expensive as Hell. Is it really worth it?

yes it is really worth it, the grower that clued me onto the product is one of the two best growers i know in my area of northern california. I first used it in one hoop house and after a month i decided to start spraying my control house because the plants looked so damn lush green!

Respect.. I just made The switch to all organic and am lovin it so far. I still keep one DWC bucket going though old habits i guess.
Most of my five gallon buckets became tea brewing buckets now.
