Kelp Meal (auxin)
Two new auxins, as yet unidentified, but unlike any of the known indolyl-acetic acid types, were also discovered in 1958 in the Laminaria and Ascophyllum seaweeds used for processing into dried seaweed meal and liquid extract. These auxins have been found to encourage the growth of more cells -- in which they differ from more familiar types of auxin which simply enlarge the cells without increasing their number. One of the auxins also stimulates growth in both stems and roots of plants, and in this differs from indolyl-acetic acid and its derivatives, which cause cells to elongate but not to divide. The balanced action of this seaweed auxin has not been found in any other auxin." taken from the hashassain's post @ icmag..


this stuff can work some magic.. look into it

and yes organic compost teas smell like death- but it's made with dead animals, shit, bacteria ect.. so what can you really expect??


Thanks Funk. Is sea kelp ok to use during flowering? i noticed it has a high N ratio. Where is it sold? I will go pick some up tommorrow. Like I said Im brewing this in a 250 gallon tote tank so I cant really go to Way To Grow and pay retail without going broke.
