Introducing tiendaficosterra.com. The new Ficosterra shopping experience

Tiendaficosterra.com offers the ecological and sustainable benefits provided by the active principles of the sea, now also in orchards and gardens

Ficos/Phycos means seaweed in Greek and Terra means earth in Latin. They are two words that, together, give meaning to what we do: transfer the active ingredients from the sea to the land.

At Ficosterra we produce fertilizers, substrates, biostimulants, and biofertilizers with the nutritional and regenerative properties of seaweed.

At tiendaficosterra.com we expand our offering and bring it to gardens, orchards, and indoor plants, with a new line created to meet the demand of professionals and lovers of gardening and horticulture who value innovative, ecological, and sustainable products and help them rediscover and expand the universe of the plant.

Why Ficosterra?

Because seaweed provides crops with innovative, 100% natural, and environmentally sustainable active ingredients that:

 

 

Why seaweed?

Seaweed and its derivatives are a natural fertilizer for all crops that have been used since Roman times as a soil improver and plant invigorator.

Its active ingredients increase the yields and quality of the crops and make it possible to significantly reduce the use of conventional fertilizers. Its application in crops not only contributes to soil regeneration but also reduces the negative and polluting impact produced by chemical fertilizers in soil, aquifers, rivers, and seas.

Numerous studies have shown that marine algae, applied to the soil, are capable of activating the immune system of plants, generating higher production, of higher quality, and resistance to diseases and environmental stress. A higher rate of germination and rooting has also been proven, with which, consequently, the plant gains in vigor and health.

Thanks to its high content of fiber, macro and micronutrients, amino acids, vitamins, and plant phytohormones, algae act as a soil conditioner and also contribute to moisture retention. In addition, due to their mineral content, they are a natural fertilizer and a source of natural substances for the proper functioning of the plant.

Ficosterra’s fertilizers, substrates, and algae extract biostimulants are ideal for all types of crops, both organic and conventional. They can be used at any time of the year. An excessive dose does not harm the plant or the environment.

The biostimulant ficosagro®: a powerful soil regenerator

 

ficosagro® is a liquid biostimulant, made from algae extracts with microorganisms, that regenerates the soil to favor the development and strength of plants. The joint action of algae and microorganisms (Biological Crop Booster technology) works directly on the soil to provide plants with better absorption of nutrients, thus giving them more vigor, health, and intense colors. It is also capable of improving and enhancing rooting and thereby guaranteeing the success of transplants.

It is a 100% natural and environmentally friendly product that also makes it possible to significantly reduce the use of chemical fertilizers.

The action of the microorganisms of the biostimulant ficosagro® in the water allows it to be used as a putrefaction reducer in vases with cut flowers.

It is a product registered by Sohiscert, an organic certification entity for agri-food products.

At Tiendaficosterra.com we offer the customer three different formats: 1 liter, 500cc, and 250cc, different sizes to adapt to the different needs of the horticulturist or gardener, as well as the size of the application surfaces.

If you want to experience its benefits for the first time, we recommend you start with the smallest bottle (250cc). Soon you will see that you need more :).

cystium-k® by Ficosterra: the 100% natural anti-stress treatment thanks to the properties of the Macrocystis pyrifera algae

cystium-k® is a biostimulant made from Macrocystis pyrifera algae, a giant alga that grows in the warm parts of the South Pacific Ocean, in Australia, the Falklands, and Tasmania. It is collected in waters with high biodiversity, rich in nutrients, and has very high growth potential, up to 30cm per day. It is the tallest seaweed in the ocean, which grows forming dense forests of heights of 30-40 meters. In addition, it is capable of generating a powerful defensive system to face the powerful sea currents that shake it.

At Ficosterra we collect the apical (upper) part of the algae with fishing boats, which allows the individual/algae to continue growing without being damaged. This way of harvesting the algae would be the equivalent of pruning a tree, which guarantees the sustainability of the process.

These unique characteristics of the Macrocystis pyrifera algae are what we extract and take to our biostimulant cystium-k®, which, applied to the soil, helps the plant to overcome any stress situation derived from a sudden change in temperature, drought, excessive cold or heat, pathogens, pests, etc. In addition, it provides extraordinary vigor, strength, and health to the plant.

If we apply it directly to the plant, via foliar, we will improve the setting and fattening of the fruit.

It is recommended for all types of plants and fruit trees and is certified by Sohiscert (SHC) for use in organic farming.

At tiendaficosterra.com we offer the customer three different formats: 1 liter, 500cc, and 250cc, different sizes to adapt them to the different needs of the horticulturist or gardener, as well as the size of the application surfaces.

If you want to experience its benefits for the first time, we recommend you start with the most miniature bottle (250cc). Soon you will see that you are running out 🙂

The bokashi ficosterra-g®. Ficosterra’s exclusive vegetable fertilizer

The word bokashi (Japanese) means “fermented organic matter”.

At Ficosterra we compost algae in this way and associate that exotic name with our ficosterra-g® fertilizer, a complete algae fertilizer, 100% organic and vegetable, whose function is to provide all the nutrients that the plant needs to improve vegetative growth, rooting, flowering and germination.

It is a soil improver especially made for orchards, gardens, and plants as it facilitates water retention, substrate permeability, and drainage. In addition, it is free of seeds and weeds and does not give off bad odors.

It is recommended for all types of plants and fruit trees and is an environmentally friendly product, certified by Sohiscert (SHC) for use in organic farming.

gelidium-s®: a powerful plant substrate made of seaweed bokashi

 

gelidium-s® is a powerful 100% vegetable bokashi seaweed substrate that provides all the nutrients plants need for healthy and vigorous growth.

It provides regenerating microorganisms from seaweed that improve the assimilation of nutrients. It contains no animal or seed remains; neither weeds nor GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms).

The gelidium-s® substrate is, without a doubt, an excellent plant substrate thanks to which you can reduce the application of fertilizers because the properties provided by the algae allow you to improve the nutrition and rooting of the plant.

 

ficosturf: the biostimulant for fields and sports turf

 

ficosturf is a biostimulant for lawns that acts as a biological enhancer for the soil.

It is especially suitable for use in home lawn gardens. It is an exceptional solution to improve implantation, quality, density, and color intensity.

It is 100% natural, and respectful of the environment.

Numerous trials carried out with the biostimulant ficosturf both in fields and sports turf, show that the biostimulant ficosturf improves microbial activity and the availability of nutrients, causing greater growth of the root system. Its use allows an improvement in the chemical composition of the soil, being able to avoid the excessive use of fertilizers, thus preserving the environment.
