Looks good. Heligan use seaweed so would be worth a go.

I would want to know what sort of NPK it has before I bought that because it would have to be at least 4x more concentrated to make it financially viable. Then I guess it would be a toss up between the convenience of the lower bulk of the concentrated manure vs the larger quantities of organic matter in the standard manure.

I have not bought any yet .... it could be chicken manure with seaweed?.... I want to see the stuff before I buy, or find out more

but saying that, it could be a good lawn fertilizer for cheap (if the NPK is decent)
