- Went to South Shields to collect seaweed for fertiliser and shared fish and chips…on these cold dark days there’s nothing nicer that spending time together looking for free stuff for the allotment #allotmentlife #allotment #gardening #garden #fertilizer #seaside #freetime #enjoyingeverydaylife #lifeiscontent
❤ it’s a lotta lotta years since I heard them referred to as the shows Davy 😊. I remember the Club trips, Ma would be sat Wi us barns on the beach pishing it down while mi Dad and the other men (Miners) would be sat in the local Club or pub on the beer LOL
The dads would come rolling from the club just before the bus back 😂 one year we hired a green tent thingy on South Shields beach and thought we were posh haha 😂
Aw we're in Lancashire.
We love the North East coastline, and visit every year in October.
We have dogs who love the beach.
We love beach combing for drift wood, and sea glass, which is common on your coastline.
Debbie, your hair looks lovely. 😊
Aw thank you ☺️ my hair is starting to go grey now 😬
Next time we go I hope we can get some drift wood as there was some lovely pieces ☺️🙏
Hi guys my dad fought me years ago collect seaweed give quick wash in collected rain water then add to compost been BRILLIANT Accelerator really works well chop into small pieces your compost will be fantastic and anything you grow in it will really benefit. I’ve been doing it for years.
I was initially going to collect it for the compost but then seen an article to soak it in a bucket of water for minimum of 8 weeks then use it diluted in water as a fertiliser, I used half of what I collected soaked in water and the rest I’m going to put in my compost ☺️🙏
Be sure to give the seaweed a good wash before putting in the bucket to remove any salts!
I washed it about 3 times before soaking it ☺️👍
Seaham supposed to be really good for sea glass. Brilliant vlog nice coastline where you are 😊😊x
Some beautiful beaches to visit here, I was brought up going to most of them for our family holidays so hold fond memories ☺️ and I love them better in the winter months where there’s few people around ☺️👍
I live on the North West coast near Blackpool I never thought of getting seaweed for fertiliser I’ll have a look after the big storm 😢
It saves buying it and if you get fish and chips too then it’s a win win ☺️👍
Hahahaha if I could show you now, that’s just what I’m sat down eating FS 😅 an a gin an tonic to wash it down hahahaha
Hope you enjoyed your fish and chips last night Ian and not got a hangover lol 😂
Nip to Roker beach, just down from Morrisons theres a storm wall there, it traps loads. I never wash mine, been told as the sea salt is natural its another mineral added. Not sure if thats right like.
Cheers will have a look to Roker for some 😃👍 I did think the salt on it may be ok but google said wash it so I did ☺️👍
Seaweed is excellent and I am after a load this week. You might find its better to collect from rocky areas rather than sand as weed washes up more there. Kelp is better for quick rotting, Bladderwrack rots down much much slower. The rules are that you are only allowed with landowners permission, but I worked on the fact of "what harm am I doing and who is really going to complain" In fact we are doing good as seaweed in water makes Methane whereas in compost it makes Co2.
I’ve got a half a bag left so I’ll chop up for the compost heap ☺️👍
Good result the day davey 3-1 up the mags
Mint mate howay the lads 👊😃
