Algieplus has found a way to use these resources from the sea as the perfect answer to the demands of soil-less cultivation.
Zostera ( eelgrass ) is a marine plant which breaks away from its roots and is washed up on the coast. Out of the water its molecular make-up, free from parasitical micro organisms, gives it the characteristic of very slow degradability and prevents it from rotting. In addition to this, it has a high water-retention capacity and can be spread on the land as a soil improver after it has been used.
These characteristics are exactly what vegetable growers and horticulturalists need to grow plants in the propagation plugs used for rooting plants in soil-less cultivation.
