Maynard Murray MD, the discoverer of sea solids, believed that hydroponics would play an ever-increasing role in the future for agriculture and feeding humanity. He understood that our soils were being depleted of their mineral reserves and that the crops grown in those soils were becoming more and more vitamin, mineral, and trace element deficient. Hydroponics is a technology where plants are grown in a sterile medium with all necessary nutrients provided via a solution that bathes the root system. Dr. Murray experimented with the utilization of sea water and sea solids in nutrient solutions with great success.
We now know that the addition of Sea-90 to any hydro solution will improve crop production and nutrient density. Crops grown will be healthier and more disease and insect resistant. Whether you are a commercial grower or a hobby gardener, SeaAgri encourages you to add Sea-90 to your solution in small amounts to reap the benefits of the minerals and trace elements.
Our starter recommendation for Sea-90 is to include 1 tsp. of Sea-90 Grower’s Series Mineralizer or Sea-90 Foliar Mineralizer (or 1/2 oz. Grower’s Series Liquid Mineralization) per gallon of hydroponic nutrient solution. This can be refined depending upon what is being grown and what other nutrients are offered.
We’ve also compiled an overview of Dr. Murray’s original, complete hydroponic nutrient formulas. Please visit this page for more information: Hydroponic Formulas.
Sea-90 can also be used within Aquaponics as well.
