Year Round Operation

Inside our indoor greenhouse we make clone plants , and seeds. We operate year round even in the snow in the winter here in coastal Maine.

Outdoor “Guerrilla” Grow

Because a portion of Getaway Mountain Seed’s grow takes place outdoors, we participate in what is often called “guerrilla grow”, using many craft techniques to keep our plants out of the swamps when it rains, and well watered when the ground is drier.

Healthy Water = Healthy Plants

At Getaway Mountain, since we are mainly an outdoor grow, we practice what is often called “guerilla growing”. Using a variety of craft techniques, we pump water into tarps that can be set up anywhere. We put several tarps up in each spot for the seasons water supply and have no problem watering plants where there isn’t any water after spring rain stops.

Seaweed Biostimulant

Seaweed extract is an “Organic Bio-Stimulant” that aides in plant growth, increases metabolism, root mass and micro flora.

Its great for organic growing and is approved by m.o.f.g.a. for organic farming.

SEAWEED { Ascophyllum Nodosum } is a sustainable resource that is natural, edible, bio-degradable, non-caloric, kosher approved, widely recognized as Halal compatible, and has no GMO issues.

Other Benefits of Seaweed Extract:

• It enables you to vary concentrations according to what it is used on. Foliar spraying allows plants and trees to benefit from it by the second day.
• Seaweed extract can be applied to: surf grass, plants, vegetables, flowers, trees, and cannabis.
• Some improvements include: higher yields, vigorous growth, more resistant to stressful conditions, promition of beneficial soil fungi, increases resistance to some pests (spidermites, aphids), also extends shelf life of fruits and vegetables.
• Seeds soaked in Seaweed Extract germinate more rapidly, have larger root mass, stronger plant growth and higher survival rate.
• Soaking roots in Seaweed Extract reduces transplant shock and speeds root growth.
• Enhances soil micro flora that will help make the uptake of nutrients more efficient and increases anti-oxidant activity in plants and tree, boosting internal defenses against enviromental stresses and pressures which stimulates new growth and vigor.
• Rich in vitamins, minerals (potassium), and a range of trace elements including sulfur. Foliar spraying can be effective against Powdery Mildew which is common in potassium deficient plants and trees.
• Especially useful in organic gardening, Seaweed Extract contains almost every micro-nutrient in a fully chaleted form.

We’ve made batches as large as 10,000 gallons for choice growers in the Sierra Mountain foothills.
