The Beaufort Wind Force Scale is an empirical measure that relates wind speed
to
observed conditions at sea or on land. Mariners are all familiar with this
scale and it's varying
levels of gales and storms. A 'whole gale' sits at Beaufort number 10 on the
scale - and has
been described as an event that changes the landscape in a dramatic way,
leaving it changed
forever.
Our company is called Whole Gale because we are about to change the landscape
of
agriculture and backyard gardening in a most dramatic way. Our products will
change how we
simply and easily utilize organic materials that already exist naturally for
sustainable
agriculture that doesn't hurt the planet with harmful pesticides and chemical
fertilizers.

organisms in the A
ocean and use these
mucus membranes
as filters. Pteropods shed these 'mucus houses' roughly every 4 hours and this
slimy, slubby
material firmly attaches itself to nets, ropes and other materials in rapidly
increasing measure.
Two years ago Damien Stratton was washing bait nets in fresh water to remove
the slub, and
some cloth material was accidentally exposed to the slub. Intrigued by the way
the slimy
substance dried on that cloth material in the summer sun, Damien started to
experiment with
different ways of treating a variety of materials with slub, desalinating and
using other organic
substances in the mixture, and applying it to his backyard vegetable garden
then observing
how it impacted the vegetables growing there.
The first test was a loose burlap treated with the slub solution, applied to
half of the vegetable
garden in the spring just after seeds were set. The initial results were
impressive. The first
noticeable benefit of slub and slub treated burlap applied to the soil was
that of highly
successful pest control. Snails and slugs - the most common garden pests -
would not go near
either material treated with slub or plants and soil treated with the slub
solution. This was a
major breakthrough as - our research indicates - there is not one other 100%
natural substance
Page 4
CA 3003313 2018-05-01
on the market that effectively controls garden snails and slugs. Our research
also indicates
this type of organism thrives in the Labrador Current and in some of the
cleanest waters in the
world off our coast. It is not found in all of the world's oceans and it
doesn't seem to survive
once the water temperature warms past what our cold waters offer.
Back in the garden, Damien also noted that the side of the vegetable patch
with burlap was
protected from erosion due to heavy rain, the soil did not dry out as quick,
germination took
place earlier than the untreated part of the garden, and birds and small
animals did not
disturb the seeds under the burlap.
At the end of the season - the vegetables that had been grown covered in the
burlap treated
with our slub solution were as healthy and yielded as much crop as the
vegetables treated with
regular consumer fertilizer.

Both Damien and Lorna are avid gardeners, environmentalists, and have
separately always
been conscious of gardening practices that avoid harmful chemicals and
pesticides. Casual
friends - Damien told Lorna about his informal experiments. It was through
subsequent
conversations they came to realize what a huge discovery they had on their
hands, and
decided to work together to evolve the product and make it available to the
world as a 100%
natural and healthy way to enhance food production and gardening.
With the solid support of Sean McNeil and the Canadian Centre for Fisheries
Innovation we
have conducted several avenues of research and that research indicates that we
are the very
first company in the world to try this method of fertilizing and pest control.
Because of the
lack of information about this substance we knew we needed more evidence as to
exactly what
we had as we developed our formula and testing methods. So in 2017 Whole Gale
did it's own
experiments to try and collect more data.
Three products have been tested
1. Burlap infused with the slub formula
2. Concentrated slub formula in liquid form sprayed on plants
3. Powdered slub formula worked into soil
Page 6
CA 3003313 2018-05-01
Attached to the end of this business plan is a controlled experiment conducted
by Whole
Gale in 2017. Over a three month period two groups of identical plants were
observed, both
in a greenhouse and outside. A control group of plants were treated with
MiracleGro
vegetable fertilizer, and the test group of plants were treated with our
product.
The experimental group demonstrated the following results:
1) Increased yield in various strains of tomato and pepper plants.
2) Earlier production of blossoms in cucumber plants
3) Greener leaves in lettuce and cabbage plants
4) Our product helped in the prevention of erosion
5) Seeds germinated quicker
6) Small animals such as birds and rabbits were not able to disturb seedlings
and young plants
in areas treated with our product.
7) And the big one - Pest control - the plants treated with our product were
not ravaged by
slugs and snails as the untreated plants were.

Collection and Processing
The slub we used in our trials was collected
from nets that had been set in place to catch
bait for the summer fishery. The nets were
--

, . do not in include nets or any
apparatus that
would catch fish, impede the movement of
marine mammals, or impede navigation. To
further our philosophy of being an
environmentally sensitive company we are hoping to experiment with simple rope
ladders
made of recycled rope, panels with burlap or hemp, or panels with astroturf
set in the water
for a few days at most.
After a few days these will be collected and dried on our premises. It will
then be desalinated
with fresh water, and stored in large tubs. The slub will then be combined
with the 100%
natural ingredients contained in our patent pending formula, mixed in a large
tumbling drum,
and then packaged for sale either in bulk or consumer sized packaging.
We do not yet have accurate data as to the optimum time of year to collect
slub. Sean McNeill
and CCFI were successful in obtaining an experimental licence from DFO for us
to do
collection experiments between April and December of 2018. During this time we
are
experimenting with different collection apparatus and drying methods.

2017 Garden Trial
In the summer of 2017, under the guidance of Sean MacNeil, Whole Gale
conducted it's own
garden trial to try and gain some insight into how applying the slub product
in various
methods would impact plants in terms of fertilizing and pest control. Sean
advised us on how
to set up a control group as opposed to the test group and ensuring each group
were subjected
to the same environmental conditions such as amount of light, temperature and
wind
conditions down to ensuring the same soil conditions and container size.

Soil was sourced at a local home hardware and was a good quality garden soil.
We were careful
to choose soil with no added fertilizer or components. We mixed bags of soil
with some
composted material and peat moss to form a good base.
It had been a unusually cold and wet spring in 2017 so we left the soil
mixture to sit for a week
to allow it to warm up before planting seeds. We did not add any powdered
miracle grow to
the soil of the control group until the seeds started to sprout, and any new
plants that were
added had time to acclimatize. Before the seeds were planted or the plants
repotted in the
test group we added 30m1 of dried slub and worked it into the soil.

1. Exterior Plot
The soil was turned over and prepared to test two drills of vegetables. This
plot was created
on a hillside to test the effectiveness of the slub solution infused on
regular burlap in helping
prevent soil erosion. The seeds were planted on July 3, 2017. At that time
carrot, beet, and
turnip seeds were planted in each drill, as well as new cabbage plants. One of
the drills was
covered with burlap infused with the slub solution and the other was left
uncovered.

2. Greenhouse
As it was a late season I purchased some plants to plant in the greenhouse.
These were
lettuce, celery and cabbage plants and were planted in fish tubs which
contained the soil
mixture. It was the first time anything had been planted in these tubs, in
this soil.
To differentiate the control group from the test group I marked the fish boxes
with green paint
for the slub products and blue for the miracle grow products. I also purchased
young plants for
the second layer, (the shelf) of the greenhouse. Here I planted tomatoes, bell
peppers, hot
peppers, and cayenne peppers.
In hanging baskets from the ceiling I planted the third layer - all cucumbers
that were directly
from seed.

Initial Observations On Exterior Plot
There were some initial observations in this trial in the first two weeks.
1) When watering the exterior plot the burlap prevented erosion in the soil
when watering.
The right side would have little rivers running through it washing away small
parts of the
soil while the side with the burlap did not.
2) The burlap also hindered small animals and birds from eating the seed and
young sprouts.
3) The seeds planted under the burlap germinated 2-3 days earlier on average
than the seeds
that were not under burlap.

Initial Observations On Greenhouse
Inside the greenhouse the first two weeks provided very little difference in
the control group
and the test group as fertilizing didn't begin until day 10. The seeds that
were planted and
started to sprout at this time as well, the plants that has been planted
seemed to be acclimated
and doing well. At this point the plants were not yet flowering (peppers,
tomatoes,
cucumbers) and the plants that did not flower were very small (carrots,
cabbage, celery,
lettuce).

Young cabbage plants in the greenhouse
From July 13th onwards all plants in the greenhouse were fertilized weekly as
according the
directions on the package of the Miracle Gro. The powdered fertilizer was
mixed with water
and then applied to the soil.
The control group were fertilized with 30 grams of Miracle Gro per 1.5 gallons
of water once
per week. The test group were fertilized on the exact same schedule using the
same volume of
slub powder dissolved in the same ratio of water - 30 grams of power per 1.5
gallons of water.
The only difference in the control group and test group were that before the
seeds and new
plants were initially planted 30 grams of slub powder was worked into the soil
of each plant in
the test group.
Page 16
CA 3003313 2018-05-01
Then both groups were fertilized on a a matching schedule with both slub
solution and
Miracle Gro.
Final Observations
On October 3, exactly three months after the garden trial was started, we had
made a number
of observations.
1. Plant robustness and quality
In the case of non flowering plants such as celery and lettuce there was a
marked difference in
those treated with the slub solution and those treated with Miracle Gro. The
plants that were
treated with the slub solution, while roughly the same size, were more lush
and robust than
the ones in the control group treated with consumer fertilizer. The test group
showed a
deeper and richer colouring as well.

2. Fruit/Vegetable Yield
The plants at the second level of the greenhouse - the peppers and tomatoes -
grew to roughly
the same size. There was no measurable difference in height or breadth of the
plants. The
plants in the slub test group however did have a higher yield in that they
produced more
blossoms. In addition to this - the test group ripened 3-5 days earlier than
the group treated
with the consumer fertilizer.

Snail and Slug Control
The slub formula we used was very successful in controlling snails and slugs.
We mainly
focused on the cabbage to measure this as it seemed to be the most easily
observable. The
cabbage in the exterior plot was watered with the slub fertilizer ensuring the
solution was
applied to the top and allowed to run down over the leaves. The cabbage in the
greenhouse
was treated in the same manner using both fertilizers. The slub solution was
very successful
in repelling snails and slugs.

* The C:N ratio of soil is in the range of 8-10: 1. When compost amendment has
a C:N ratio of
greater than 30:1, there is a higher risk that the soil microorganisms will
"steal" nitrogen from the
soil and tie it up as they break down the carbon, which makes the N
unavailable to crop.

The products outlined in this document are really just the beginning. At
WholeGale we want
to do much more than market a successful product line. We want to create
meaningful, well
paying jobs in rural Newfoundland and Labrador. We want to re-invest money
into research
and development to help people in our province, and beyond, find ways to grow
sustainable,
completely natural food products without poisoning the oceans and the earth.
It is our belief
that everything we need is in nature, and we want to develop more ways and
products of
tapping into that abundance.
We want to be a company with a strong social conscience and make a global
contribution to
the well being of our planet and its people. This can be done in all kinds of
ways from small
projects like sponsoring and providing materials for small school vegetable
gardens to large
efforts such as fine tuning our product to maximum effectiveness so that it
will replace
chemical fertilizers being used now that are leeching into the oceans and
killing coral reefs.
For more information or to discuss this further please contact us and we'd
love to get
together!
