Seaweed which grows often time on the sea-floor, gets reaped off their foundation and comes ashore. It can be messy at times if there is a lot on the beach.
Don’t be alarmed, you can actually use the seaweed in your garden as an organic fertilizer. You can use it as mulch, add it to your compost and also make seaweed tea fertilizer.
Throughout this video, I will explain just that.
So don’t ignore the seaweed littering the beach, collect it for your garden.

Seaweed is the right weed for your garden.
What a great free resource for your garden, @AgroSuede ! Thanks for sharing.
@just trying to grow some food , do you have access to seaweed?
I have been wanting to get some seaweed from the beach to throw in the compost pile. If i had a truck i would fill it up with it lol. Last time i was at the beach i could have filled up a dump truck with seaweed from just 50' of shore line. Tons of it.
I don't know if the stuff on our beach is technically seaweed but it does come from the ocean so it must have all the micro nutrients.
I don't take many trips to the beach, but if I did, I'd be collecting it. "Great for the garden.
Hello Agrosuede. I chop and drop seaweed, leaves and grass cuttings on my raised beds in autumn when it's cold to overwinter. There are no fly's about in winter, there's no smell and I turn it weekly and have never seen any slugs. I don't think I would do this over the summer months but doing it in the colder months is fine. I have several Seaweed videos posted, I have attached a link to one should you care to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5oIoXF714w
