Maxicrop

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

Has anyone used Maxicrop? Is it any good? Used to use Woolies plant food. I've started using Fertile Fibre and saw Maxicrop advertised there. Any advice?

Just seen in my Tuckers catalogue that Maxicrop is organic seaweed extract. We don't use that but we do use the granules that you make into liquid feed from Tamar - very good value at £9.95 (but not organic).

I used maxicrop organic on my chillies last year and I think they were great. Will be using it again this year.

i used it on my broad beans last year and had really good results. I also sprayed it on the foliage and had very few black fly - i will be using again this year

As far as I know you can't get inorganic seaweed! I presume it's seaweed plus?

Its ground up plastic seaweed!

Its not certified 'organic' as per Soil Association regs....imagine what's in it if its from the North Sea?

Thanks for all of the advice. Time I bought Maxicrop.

Or any other sea for that matter!

How do you get organic seaweed without a sea then?

I used a solution of Maxicrop to soak my bare-rooted Plum tree prior to planting - I use seaweed as a soil booster also
