Maine is developing techniques for culturing kelp on sea farms as a way for fishermen and farmers to diversify their operations while providing a unique, high quality, nutritious vegetable seafood for new and existing markets. Kelp is grown on submerged horizontal long lines on leased sea farms from September to May, making it a “winter crop” for Maine. The simple farm design, …

Aquaculture In Shared Waters Fact Sheet: Site Selection, Dana Morse
Maine Sea Grant Publications
Site selection is the process of determining the optimum place for the sea farm. It’s a critical process, and will affect success - or failure.

The best approach is to do your homework thoroughly.

Another way to think about this is to keep the crop at minimum stress: low stress equals faster growth, improved …
