Hi Charles I am resurrecting an old thread.
I live in Brittany and have trouble getting manure, so I have started following old local tradition and mulching with seaweed. I also make a liquid fertiliser and this yr the results seem very good. I know it is good for crops like asparagus, leeks and potatoes, but is there any crops that might get harmed. I am about to sow broad beans and plant garlic and would like to mulch with seaweed and add a bit of compost.
I have started to go to talks around the subject of permaculture here partly to improve my French and I then stumbled across your u tube videos and discovered that you are all talking the same language. Many of your tips make sense of methods used by my neighbour particularly in relation to timing of sowing and planting.
Thank you for deepening my knowledge with your simple and effective advice.
