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 ! ~ Tom
