Abstract
Seaweed concentrate applied either as a root drench or a foliar spray at transplanting significantly improved seedling growth of both cabbage and marigold. Both root and shoot growth were stimulated. In the case of marigolds, flowering was greatly accelerated. Seewier-konsentraat aangewend of as ’n grond-benatting of blaar-bespuiting met verplanting het die groei van kool- en afrikaner-saailinge betekenisvol gestimuleer. Wortel- sowel as loofgroei is bevorder. In die geval van die afrikaner-saailinge is blomvorming baie bevorder.
