I'm really interested to see how these kelp additives work with flowering plants, as most of the experience is with food crops.
The guy that imports Kelpak is primarily a vintner, and he specializes in syrah and petit syrah. He uses the stuff in the spring to stimulate root growth and kick start the vines so they grow better, and thereby produce more and better fruit. Then, as the grapes grow, he applies it again, only this time he's looking for the cytokinins to cause extension in the rachis, separating the grapes so he can get more effective penetration of fungicides, giving him more, top-quality grapes per bunch.
