Effects foliar feeding has on the plant. Can to much burn out the stomata of the leaves?

Hi Russ. I would like to ask you why Canadian growers have fallen so far behind the rest of the growing world in this sport?? 1818 Bryson WR in 2011 and nothing since?? We are now 500lbs behind the current WR and there is no way we can blame weather over the last 5yrs.?? Whats the problem...?

Will a plant absorb more seaweed if its the only thing sprayed compared to the amount of seaweed absorbed when combining another product.Doesn't a stomata have a limit of total absorption.
a simplified example
only seaweed sprayed -100% absorption
seaweed and fulvic sprayed 50% seaweed and 50% fulvic absorbed

Hey Carl, there are a few reasons why Canadians have fallen behind, but we hope that the $5,000 prize we're offering for the GVGO's Great Canadian 1-Ton Challenge, will inspire our Canadian members to break the 2,000# mark.

Are you taking the Challenge Carl? You are 1 of only 3 Canadians to grow over 1800#, so your chances of winning are pretty good. Go to www.gvgo.ca to find out more info about the Challenge.

If any other Canadians growers want to join in & take the Challenge, email us at gvgo@i-zoom.net

Cheers,
Jane & Phil

50% of the seed ? An unproven seed sells for $40. Extract 400 seed and how much did it cost for the contest? If you want to make the contest worth while up the prize structure to $10,000...?? I think i made $500 off my 1811 in 2012. Bragging rights are everything Phil !!!

Sorry Eddy.

PS. Carl, the pumpkin could only have 20 seeds in it too. Email me at gvgo@i-zoom.net so we can address your concerns.
Thanks,
Phil
