  Prior to getting high production, seaweed farm owners or workers should understand cultivation methods. They involve cultivation technique, place, species of seaweed, methods for selecting seed, growth, resistance against plant disease, spacing, appropriate time to start planting, control and supervision, harvesting and also marketing. The objective of the study was to describe growth, production and carrageenan of K.alvarezii grown using selected seed that is phenotype (F4) seed. The study lasted for 45 days. The experimental study consisted of 2 treatments, pre- and post-sexual seed. The parameters were growth and production. The cultivation method used was long line method. The data analysis was student t-test. The absolute growth of seaweed using selected (F4) seed was 334, 8 ± 0, 12 g-874, 8 ± 0, 14 g while that using seeds from cultivator was 105.. View more»
