Yup, must be.

This brings up an interesting question I have for you.

I used greensand for the first time this year and it seemed to work quite well. I am told this stuff is scooped up off the bottom of the ocean and is found in only a few spots around the globe. Evidently the sea bed off the coast of Jersey is supposed to be the best.

So, my question:

Have you ever heard of the stuff? If so, do you know why Jersey has the best?

Thanks,
RIK

I have heard of the stuff RIK ~
I haven't used it though ...

I harvest my seaweed locally @ my beach ;
and just apply as mulch and compost ...
Helps the beach, and my gardens!

There is something about NJ's soil for tomatoes ...
Sounds like its in the dirt ? and now the seaweed !
