  • I have found a new tip you all may want to try, it simple seaweed collected from the beach, not the first strand nearest the water, but the third nearest the land, all broken up by mother nature, free compost for ur land, looks like wood bark when used great effect!

     

  • Natuaraly feeds the land, with loads of minerals, and is organic!

  • ps its free!

     

  • There ya go, bumped!

    You need permission from the owner of the beach to remove seaweed, even if it's not growing. 

    The owner may be the local council, the National Trust or an individual.  Many beaches are protected e.g. SSSI etc and the seaweed forms an important part of the ecology of the area.

    Don't go removing it without permission.

    Hi Tom and welcome imageimage

    Several people here have allotments and many of us have veg patches in our gardens.  This is a thread about Zoomer's allotment http://www.gardenersworld.com/forum/talkback/new-allotment-omg/220407.html
