Granular Seaweed Extract

Granular Seaweed Extract is a slow-release bio-stimulant derived from cold-water Ascophyllum nodosum harvested from the pristine North Atlantic. This brown seaweed species is uniquely rich in cytokinins, auxins, betaines, alginates, and mannitol — a cocktail of natural plant growth regulators and stress-protective compounds unmatched by any synthetic alternative. The granular form (2-3mm) enables simple broadcast application alongside conventional fertilizers, releasing bio-active compounds gradually over 4-8 weeks as soil moisture dissolves the matrix. Widely used in European organic farming, Middle Eastern date palm cultivation, and Australian broadacre agriculture.

Ascophyllum nodosum thrives in the harsh intertidal zone where it endures daily cycles of desiccation, UV radiation, temperature extremes, and osmotic shock. The protective compounds it produces — betaines, mannitol, proline — are directly transferable to crop stress tolerance. Cytokinins promote cell division and delay senescence (leaf ageing), extending the photosynthetically active period by 7-14 days. Auxins stimulate root initiation and elongation. Alginates improve soil structure by binding soil particles into stable aggregates. The granular matrix releases these compounds gradually as irrigation or rainfall dissolves the seaweed concentrate.
