Timing is everything!
-
Hey community,
I've noticed a huge difference on my farm site in Branford CT. off of Spectacle Island/ Indian neck neighborhood) from last year planted out 12/23 and this year planted out 11/12. I think the big difference for my site this year was that seed was available from Greenwave much earlier due to a new method the team is using with Gametophytes. I was able to out-plant 6 weeks earlier and hit the fall nutrient pulse much better, as you can see the kelp is much fatter and happier this year! Were any of you able to get gear in the water significantly earlier/ seen similar results at your farms? (photo 1: taken jan 31st 2024 photo 2: taken march 15th 2023)
@ben_kelsey8244 Timing is indeed everything! I experienced this last year in that the earliest lines I outplanted were definitely happiest! Your kelp is Looking great!
