Liquid kelp or powder?

Im wanting to know, you cant actually make liquid kelp can you?
Its not powdered turned to liquid its some how fomented and extracted?

Whats best? 100 pound sacks of dry kelp?

I used the liquid and we went GREEEEN almost over night but its expensive and I have shit tons of powdered kelp.

I do like the results.

This is my first year 100% organic. Sweet,

I prefer liquid ... dryed its cheaper and has a longer shelf life.

liquid is better cold press is the best it keeps all the essential micronutrients

Kelp meal (dry) is not only the cheapest, but the best.

That's the simple, short answer. If you want the longer technical version of why liquid, extract, or concentrate isn't as good, you'll have to do some research.

Eventually, you'll arrive back at the simple, short answer.

Wet

Why not use both? They're both different things.

I hear good things about the powdered kelp.

But personally I use Maxicrop liquid and it's only $15 or 20/gallon. Price is low enough that I'll stick with it. Good in the soil and good as a foliar

I used age old organics feed and age old kelp.
Noticed it went green the same day! Im not sure these products are 100% organic at all!

Age old is great stuff. I use it on my green house because it is affordable, concentrated and works great. It is 100% organic and the formula was invented in Boulder, CO for growing organic cannabis. Their kelp is the cheapest concentrated liquid around.

Liquid kelp is usually highest in nutrients and most available for immediate use by plants compared with the powder or meal form. It can be cold-processed, or enzymatically digested. The digested form is a higher-quality formulation, so expect to pay a bit more. Its use might be best reserved for high-value crops. The digested form also contains more natural growth hormones (more than 60) than either of the other two extracted forms. The cold-pressed form will have less nutrients, but still offer more than powder or meal. Some of the growth hormones in liquid kelp include cytokinins to aid in the division of cells; auxins to promote root and cellular development; indoles to aid in root and bud development; and gibberellins to promote stem and seed development. This form needs to be reapplied more often, as the nutrients will be used within one month of application.

How about fresh kelp from the ocean?

Here's a vid explaining the process. This is more for the homegrower. I wouldn't want to be making hundreds of pounds of the stuff.
