- In this webinar, John outlines the benefits of seaweed in agriculture, the soil and microbiology interactions with seaweed components, and AEA's seaweed product, SeaStim. Watch to learn why plants respond so differently to AEA's seaweed product than to other seaweeds. To learn more about using SeaStim, visit www.advancingecoag.com/ or email info@advancingecoag.com.

I was researching the benefits of organic seaweed fertilizer and your video popped up! Great content! Thank you. New subscriber in the UK😁
Thank you always JK. Your videos and communication skills are fantastic.
Great content! Thanks! Would be interesting if you talk about frost resistance strategies in an episode.
Years ago I supplied yard maintenance to a seaside property where kids on water skis tore up much of the rich swirl lagoon sea plants, which washed ashore.
Gathering these into approx. 9'x9'x3' high pipes to decompose, in a month these piles were pushing thousands of Lambs' Quarter seedlings which quickly grew into much larger plants than the random Lamb's Quarter growing along the beach.
I added this composed seaweed to land plant composting piles, then applied in trenches to decorative plant beds. Those beds produced more abundant and disease resistance decorative plants over a longer season than beds with only land plant compost soils, although those composts produced better plants than the native soil.
I left that employment before having time for further exploration.
Since, I have been interested in restoring desert areas, where I see compost seaweed as a vital soil element
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Claude!

Indeed... Seastim has made some tremendous differences in the health and vigor of my crops this year. It was one of the best investments I made this year. I have seen a large difference in the health and vigor of every crop I used Seastim on. Now it will be a primary part of my fertility program... and one I go to first. The proof is in the pudding! I am truly amazed. I have been using AEA products for a number of years and never had the budget to add it before. Now that I have, I consider it essential for my farm's productivity and long term success. Thanks for this webinar AEA! Now I know even more about it!
seaweed or kelp is fantastic for vineyards in particular, grapes love them and you can see some quite high differences in yield anywhere from 10-40% increases on average, and they have been linked in studies to increased aromatics in wine grapes, higher levels of polyphenols and etc higher levels of nitrogen in the must when fermenting wines.
I am very much looking forward to the upcoming podcast about the bell curve on foliar feeds. This is something I have been wondering a lot of things about.
The Farmacy Seeds Network me too, the knowledge is finally all coming together
which video is it?
Thanks John, i do miss some references. For instance the degrees increased against freezing damage ... thanks again!
I use seaweed extract on my lawn. It helps me water less in the summer by toughening up the grass
Thanks, John! Watching from the Caribbean. Great Content !
Oh my gosh…. Some are just some funny little creatures from the deep….deep off the deep end…..this is such valuable information, especially in these times of excessive blooms of sargasso in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean ! Hopefully it would be a clean enough source for regenerative agriculture uses !!
Great video guys, keep అప్ this good work, from india
Hi John and thank you for all the knowledge you share with us !!! I wanted to know what you think about the fermentation of algae collected by the sea with cane sugar (KNF), Do you get a quality product? Thank you....
Very informative,ty.
John, do you know what process Acadian seaweed uses?
Hi John, I really appreciate the quality and quantity of education you provide. I've listened to every one of your podcasts and have learned SO much.
My question: A product available here in Australia uses potassium sorbate as a stabilizer. Any thoughts about this stabilizer?
Thanks, Jamin
What is your take on sargassum seaweed?
I used Bloom city cold pressed seaweed extract. I use it in worm casting tea. Not sure if as good as your stuff.
Wondering if freshwater seaweed would be beneficial in composting. Or is there a better way to use it?
Fermented/blended for fertigation or hydrated/blended and filtered for foliar would offer more direct benefit. Wouldn't hurt though.
Can i make sea weed extract fertilizer at home with brown sea weed which is very available here.
Seaweed is garden gold!!!
If I spray seaweed to my lawn, how often should I apply to be sufficient.
20 liters a hectare dilution rate.....applied in spring and fall, apply with plenty of water, as a drench, if you have lots of surface dry grass or thatch remove it first so the product reaches the soil.
What is the difference between AEA's SEASTIM and AEA's SeaShield ??
Hi carpe diem jonah, we responded to your comment on another video, but in case you are still wondering: SeaStim is a liquid kelp extract that increases resistance to insect pests and boosts immunity to fungal pathogens. SeaShield is a cold processed liquid crab, fish, and shrimp concentrate that enhances plant vigor and resistance to pests and pathogens and develop strong cell membranes. You can find out more about these products on our Shop page (www.advancingecoag.com/store/All-Products-c20204119).

How many ml of seaweed extract I can dilute In 1 liter of water? Thanks
Get powder form. You can use 0.3ml 0.5ml or 1ml per gallons. Natural growth hormones and 80 different trace minerals from the ocean. Use with humic acid. 5:2 for best results.
Never go powder. Go liquid, cold extraction, dried seaweed losses most of the benefits of seaweeds. Cold and centrifugal extraction that relieses compounds in the biological active form from inside the cell and no changes to its natural structure
@@julmem6392 thanks a lot dear
@@ClearWater7.62 thanks for your Idea
This has probably been asked 100x already , but what about salt ? Should I be concerned about it ❓I add seaweed Tea
8 seconds, pacifically
How does Seasol rate?
Check Seasol SDS, Potassium Hydroxide is used for extraction
Why do we eat fish on land from the sea, is that unnatural?
To be honest I think what makes me very uneasy about it is the potential for radioactive particles to have collected in the seaweed but considering Jesus is Lord I presume that God hears prayers concerning it. Dear Lord God please protect our agricultural industry from the harm done everywhere.
Don’t sweat it too much, one of the pioneers of nuclear power used to swim in the cooling ponds of the reactors and lived to ripe old age.
Dear lord Jesus please protect the radioactive particles from these heathen farmers. May the radioactivity be increased substantially.
improve root growth
Hello, I am just worried that if this really takes off, oceans will be depleted of seaweeds. Knowing how fast humans consume food, soon not only we will have less fish in the oceans (seaweed are fish and tons of other living ocean organisms nest for reproduction)
And we already have seen this because populations have increased their intake of seaweeds for nutritional trends....
I think most places are simply growing their own seaweed versus harvesting it. I think we are a long long way off from that.
@@johns6704 thinking different from nowing
Conversely, with our increased interest we may see a huge increase in seaweed farming, and possibly even ecosystem restoration. It's a bit idealistic, but industries do want to protect their market, and with enough demand action would be required. Fingers crossed.
If we switch from modern agriculture practices and go to all organic, we would see the ocean and fish population be heavily strengthened. It's not because of our harvesting that is killing the population, it's our chemical run off killing everything. Sea weed grows very fast so we wouldn't have an issue.
after we eat all the fish whos gonna eat the seaweed?
P
but seaweed grows in the sea...why do we need to use it on soil? It's unnatural.
All lives on earth have started from the sea.
