j Incidentally. Mrs. Price is an ac
credited exhibition judge and a
I momtier of the American Iris So
, riety. This la< t lends credence to,
her report.
Mrs. Price used 29 varieties and
‘four treatments no seaweed.)
‘granulated seaweed, extract sea -j
weed, and the extract plus the
j granulated form, in all rases the
use of sea wood formulations
made a difference in the general
plant vigor, flower production,
quality of the bloom, length ot
blooming season, and cold resist
ance.
TTie difference that Mrs. Price'
found in her treatments can in*
ascribed to the large number 01
micro-nutrient elements found in
seaweed. Leaf analyses were run.
for copper, manganese, moly'bde
1 num and zinc. In all cases the
leal content in parts jier million,
was higher than you would ex
pect from using a regular com
ploto fertilizer such as an K iN’l -!
S 1P1 . 8 tK> The pH <relative
acidity or sweetness t of the soil
was raised from 5.5 to a maxi-'
mum of 7.2. This puts the pH in
the neut*al zone or slightly on
the sweet side.
The leaf analyses show the ac
cumulative power of the plants
grown in seaweed without detri
ment to the plant or the soil. The
findings do not give all the nutri
ent needs of the iris plant but
they do gi\e ar. indication of the
response of tin.*' plant t • what w«*;
might call a balanced fertilizei j
treatment
Mrs. Price concludes: “My own,
experience 'after one yean using'
Norwegian tAscophyllum nodo-!
suin' seaweed verifies that the
trace <micro' elements derived 1
from this product are eminently)
successful with iris."
