Thanks

Doug says - treat it like any other green matter. Just add it to the compost pile :-) Not overly complicated answer was it? :-)

You're going to find several things about seeaweed - the first is that when it dries out, the bulk is considerably reduced. Big time reduced and what starts out as a huge pile is really tiny by comparison.

But the good news is that this plant has a ton of great growth and plant hormones in it that really gives a boost to gardens. So what you lose in bulk, you gain in performance in the garden.

Bottom line, collect lots. Make big piles (at least 4x4x4 at the smallest) and treat it as organic matter.

I'm jealous about your east coast supply of this material.
