ADVANCE FOR WEEKEND APRIL 29-30, 2017 AND THEREAFTER - In this Dec. 7, 2016 photo, buoys mark the location of a commercial seaweed farm at Hump Island Oyster Co. in Ketchikan, Alaska. Mariculture crews landed a disappointing first haul of planted seaweed recently near Ketchikan as part of an experiment on commercial kelp farming in the state. The University of Alaska Southeast, a seaweed product specialist known as Blue Evolution and a handful of commercial kelp growers are collaborating on the effort, with one growing operation near Ketchikan and two sites at Kodiak Island, where the first harvest is expected to start May 4, according to project stakeholders.
