Dissolving SEA-90 and applying in solution as a foliar spray is a new application method that gained momentum during recent years due to research trials many of our customers conducted on their farms and gardens. The results are outstanding, and the cost of application averaging less than $1.50 per acre for most ranchers and farmers, is very exciting coupled with the results. Foliar applying SEA-90 remineralizes the plant from the top down rather than from the ground up. We believe that remineralization through broadcast application of SEA-90 is a necessary aspect to your remineralization efforts. However, foliar applications offer a significantly lower cost alternative for many farmers and gardeners during this time of rising fuel costs plus increase the nutrient density of the forage, fruits or vegetables. It has been proven through research trials that mineral foliar sprays can move up to one foot per hour in the plant's vascular system when applied at the proper time (late afternoon to sundown) when the stomata are wide open. Pasture grasses can supply up to 100 elements if they are available in the soil. By foliar applying SEA-90 sea minerals to pasture grasses as a foliar spray the grass is bathed in 92+ elements increasing the nutrient density to maximum levels. Many of our customers report that livestock grazing on pastures enriched with foliar application of SEA-90 refuse all mineral supplements as long as the livestock have that pasture grass to forage. An organic vegetable grower reported that he raised the Brix reading on his tomatoes from three to 10 with only foliar application. We know that some of the spray reaches the soil along with the plant matter as it decays to provide the elements and trace minerals to soil life and eventually enriching the soil.
