SeaCrop16 - Specific Uses
Seed and Seed Bed Treatment
Treating seeds or seed pieces with SeaCrop16 prior to planting will improve
seed germination, root growth, and early seedling vigor.
Seeds or seed pieces can be treated in one of the following ways:
- Lightly mist the seeds or seed pieces with 1 teaspoon SeaCrop16 diluted in 1 gallon of
water before planting, or
- Soak the seeds, seed pieces, or bulbs for 5 to 10 seconds with 1 teaspoon SeaCrop16
diluted in 1 gallon of water, or
- Use 2 pints of SeaCrop16 per acre and apply to the seed bed at time of seeding or up to
20 days thereafter
Rooting Solution and Transplanting
SeaCrop16 also can be used as a rooting solution. Place cuttings in a solution of SeaCrop16 and water until roots develop, then plant. When planting, water in with SeaCrop16 solution. Dilution Rate: 1 teaspoon SeaCrop16 to 1 gallon water.
Stress Relief
Use 1 pint of SeaCrop16 per acre anytime a crop is prematurely dying down (loss of color) due to stress caused by one or more of the following conditions: weather (frost, drought, excessive moisture), insect infestation, fungus attack, or herbicide burn.
Small Usage
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) SeaCrop16 per gallon of water.
Vegetables, Fruits, Berries
- Mix 1 pint SeaCrop16 with enough water to cover 1 acre
Trees and Shrubs
- Mix 1 pint of SeaCrop16 with enough water to cover 1 acre. Apply in early spring, and at bud formation, terminal calyx, and in early to mid-fall
Ornamental Plants
- Mix 1 pint SeaCrop16 with enough water to cover 1 acre. Spray initially at prebloom stage and thereafter once a month
Lawn and Turf
- Mix 1 ounce of SeaCrop16 with enough water to cover 1000 square feet. Apply at initial stages of growth and thereafter once a month
Feed, Hay and Forage Crops (grains, grasses & legumes)
SeaCrop16 increases nutrient uptake, protein content, and overall quality of the crop.
- Feed: Apply 1 pint to 1 quart per acre during 4-6 leaf stage, repeat in 10 to 14 days
- Hay: Apply 1 pint to 1 quart per acre to young re-growth 7-14 days after mowing
- Forage: Apply 1 pint to 1 quart per acre to pastures before animals are set out, and again at monthly intervals, or sooner if stress symptoms appear
- For intensively-managed pasture, apply 1 pint to 1 quart per acre to each section shortly after animals are moved out. If rotation is less than 2 weeks, apply every other time that animals are moved out
