It is one of the best mulches and soil builders.

Fabulous stuff, but be careful collecting it - I know someone
who was fined for collecting seaweed.

We use peastraw. It goes into the rabbit house for a week
or two, then onto the garden. Fabulous stuff. You get peas
coming up, but they are easy to weed. I don't use wheat
traw much because of the weeds, and I don't think it has
much nutrient value. I wouldn't use hay - you don't know
what weeds you might get.
