SeaWeed Xtract from Platinium Nutrients

N 3

SeaWeed Xtract is a nitrogenous organic fertilizer based on feather powder and Ascophyllum nodosum, a seaweed naturally rich in trace elements (it contains boron, calcium, copper, iron, manganese, magnesium, molybdenum and sulfur), concentrated in auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins, natural growth hormones with many qualities : These phytohormones stimulate cell division and cell size, play a key role in bud break, boost the metabolism of young shoots, delay leaf senescence and activate chlorophyll production.

Cytokinins are actively involved in cell division and membrane formation.
Auxins and gibberellins promote cell elongation. Betaine is involved in the production of chlorophyll and is considered the best plant anti-stress agent.
Betaine is involved in the formaldehyde cycle which is used as a protective agent for the plant against nematodes.

Not allgrowth hormones from fresh algae are found in commercial products. Auxins, unlike cytokinins, are more stable.

The gibberellins degrade after a few months, hence the importance of working with formulations that are perfectly controlled from the point of view of stability; thus for Ascophyllum nodosum, which is classified as a brown alga, because it becomes so when it dries, the green color at the start is a good indicator of its freshness and the expected qualities related to polysaccharides. Ascophyllum nodosum is a perennial alga that can live for many years.
We know today that the effects of Ascophyllum nodosum extracts are multiple and intervene in the heart of the plant metabolism: The results of the experiments show that these algal molecules stimulate the growth and the nutrition of the plants treated with SeaWeed Xtract. The study of their mode of action reveals that they act on the plants as vitality stimulators. There is also a stimulatory effect on root phosphatase enzymes involved in phosphate uptake.
The activation of this type of enzymes allows a multitude of downstream effects in the plant, noted in particular by an increase in the chlorophyll content of the plants.

Our researchers are able to identify those responsible for the effects of algal substances on plants, as well as the potential targets of these marine extracts. Following the spraying of brown seaweed extract rich in auxins, a list of genes has been established that shows a link between the doses applied and protein synthesis.

Measurable results and production gains: The application of SeaWeed Xtract and its seaweed extracts results in an increase in growth rate of 5 to 30% depending on the crop treated; an increase in root system (sometimes spectacular) is observed, but the tests also and above all highlight an increased resistance to diseases, particularly on potatoes, apple, pear and peach orchards, sugar beet, corn and sunflower. Another original molecule present: abscisic acid, involved in the regulation of evapotranspiration and the fight against hydric stress of crops. Mannitol, alginic acid (colloidal polysaccharide), fucoidin, amino acids, and proteins are other sources of algae-specific effects, all of which are beneficial to agriculture.
SeaWeed Xtract is an ideal additive to prepare the plant for exuberant flowering through the action of phytohormones, while activating its natural defenses for better resistance to diseases, deficiencies and temperature variations through elicitors. As a complement to your growth fertilizer.

Use :
2 to 5ml/L in irrigation or 5ml/L in spraying, during growth and until the 3rd week of flowering.

Composition :
Organic nitrogen = 3%

ACTION OF SEAWEED XTRACT

CYTOKININS : This hormone induces a budding of the plant
