Seaweed tea

Just been for another forage and gathered two bin bags of seaweed to make a fertiliser intend to use mower to chop it up should I wash it first ? Many thanks

 

Crikey, I did that years ago - except ...

... I didn't chop it (just laid it as it came) and I didn't wash it

Give it a good wash first, is my advice.

 

Thank you for heads up ! Just been reading that if you cut the bottom off a 2lt plastic bottle fill with seaweed and top up with water place in the ground bottle top down clingfilm the bottom makes super concentrated tea anyone tried ?

 

Erm ... sort of Does stuffing it into an unused water butt, filling it with water and then just extracting a bit into a watering can count?
