What about salt content ??


Seaside gardens are used to being covered in salt during storms, and
we have high rainfall to dilute it. I've applied tons of seaweed
straight off the beach, with no harm.

Seaweed was the fertiliser of choice for farmers in Jersey growing Jersey
Royals, time past. Some are returning to using it now, thank goodness. All
they did was chuck it on and let weather and nature do the rest.
