Grahame's feeling happy this week...
" ANIMALS LOVE SEAWEED
The Fussiest of animals love the taste of seaweed and they seem to know that it is doing them good, unlike humans that go YUCK I don’t think that I would like the taste… Well, you can always take Seagreens Seaweed Capsules.
We seem to have lost over the centuries that inbuilt natural way of knowing about our personal wellness, but that’s OK because you can get the amazing effect by looking on our Web shop for Human grade Seaweed in many forms.
We had a farmer years ago who’s cows and calves broke down his shed door to get at the full bags of Seaweed Meal, he arrived for milking to find them, their noses in a bag, and it was almost gone, they obviously needed it.
Another dairy farmer found that when the cows could smell the Seaweed in the bales he didn’t have to go out and fetch them, often in the rain, in BUT he quickly learned to get another bag of Seaperia Seaweed Meal and that made his job much easier and saved time which is a bonus early morning before Sun rise.
One person said that when they ran out their dog went to his bowl, sniffed and looked up with wide eyes, as if to say, where is the Seaweed then?
We are sure there are hundreds of great stories out there so why not send one of your own personal tales to us to send in Seamail."
Grahame is having on a full on rant this week!
Look out growers! 🫵
"My Problem Maybe YOU!!
One of my biggest problems in this seaweed business is so many growers take little notice of what I tell them and simply go their own way…
Now it has forced me to write to you all about things like ‘HOW MUCH SEAPERIA SOLUBLE TO USE PER HECTARE IN HOW MUCH WATER’ Yes this sounds very simple, but some people think its flexible like an elastic band.
Until you have had as many years as I have in using the seaweed you must use Seaperia Soluble as instructed. YOU are learning and it takes a while to change over from Chemicals to Natural Products and know what the effect will be.
I have farmers cutting back to a half or sometimes a quarter of what is recommended and expect it to work as good, just because they are putting it on more often and others saying, I just tipped in the whole bagful and gave it a real good go!
WELL… NO this is not the go and until you know what you are doing, and what the plants need it is bad practice to expect our Seaperia Seaweed to do the right job!!
OK there are plants like RAPE that only need one spray of Half a Kilo Per Hectare… and then there are Pumpkins that love stronger seaweed, thrive on it, multiple times. BUT most plants need to have Two Sprays of One Kilo Per Hectare on the ‘LEAF’ not the soil, from when the crop has a good leaf cover, at a time when there is Sun for at least several days expected… THEN you can expect good results!"
FARMERS NEED TO BUY NITROGEN…
What if this was not true!
This is how to build the richest, most productive, palatable and profitable pastures in the world that are self-sustaining with just a spray of Super Concentrated Seaweed each year and works instantly improving your soil… no waiting years for that increase in Fertility, you can see the results in your crops and pastures in the first year of use.
The KEY to all this is Seaperia SUPER CONCENTRATED Seaweed Spray… no need for buying expensive pods of water with very little seaweed, this is truly one hundred percent Ascophyllum seaweed of the highest nutrient content that puts back all the missing minerals and wakes up the Nitrogen and Phosphorus in your soil profile for maximum growth and quality.
Many soil spray products take several years to see any improvement, this is due to soil application which is slower than spraying the plant leaf which feeds the soil with nutrient directly exploding Bacterial numbers releasing Nitrogen, Phosphorus plus trace minerals for fantastic plant growth.
Don’t buy Nitrogen it’s a waste of time and money, you can get all you need and more simply by spraying the leaf of your crop or pasture with a seaweed that pays for itself after the first spray, then continue feeding your soil every morning as the dew reactivates the seaweed on the leaf surface. Spray when you know it will be sunny, no rain or irrigation to wash the seaweed off. Sun makes seaweed work causing sugar to feed soil bacteria and make Nitrogen. This is the cheapest, most efficient way to make all the Nitrogen you need.
Yesterday I planted a little tree fern near my front gate.
It was a volunteer in one of my pot plants -the joys of living in FNQ!
So did it get Seaperia Meal in the hole?
Did I water it in with Seaperia?
You betcha!
I’ve used Seaperia on all my natives and they love it!
YAHOO Less Plastic!
YES, THIS HAS TO BE A WINNAH MATE… Our World is becoming a Plastic Dumping Ground of major proportions so everyone should do as much as they can to reverse it, that is why we have replaced most of our Seaperia Seaweed Meal bags with FULLY COMPOSTABLE BAGS made of brown paper and lined with Corn Starch, even the zip!
We have been searching for a much larger strong compostable bag for our big 4.5kilo Seaweed Meal, but unfortunately this has not happened so the search goes on.
Our 25kg Seaperia Seaweed Meal bags from the producer in Norway are several layers of thick paper, NO PLASTIC, fully compostable!
Our Seaperia Soluble SUPER CONCENTRATE comes as a dry flake and there is nothing at present to replace the plastic bags, but we are about 98% LESS PLASTIC than the liquid seaweeds which is great!
You can make our brown paper bags even more compostable by sprinkling or soaking them with a little seaweed liquid as it will further speed up the process and improve the nutrients in your compost!
Of course, you could always reuse them at least once, NOW THERE IS A CHALLENGE… Send a good idea to us with your next Meal Order and we'll send you a 10% off coupon for your next Meal order.
Yes, it’s a REAL SEAWEED MEAL DEAL …
Take advantage of this offer and help us to reduce waste in our Nation and in our lovely fragile natural World, THANK YOU!

SAVE OUR AUSSIE SOILS…
IF OUR Aussie soils are so rich WHY does our soil need constant fertilizing every year… the truth is our soils are nutrient poor and crops have to be propped up, fed, sprayed and babied for any worthwhile production. We are in the main a low nutrient, low phosphate and low trace element nation with high cost of production.
Now is the time to start changing our farming practices to not just improve our soil but also reduce our inputs and costs, increase profits and make life much easier in general.
Yes this is possible and can be very successful indeed with most of our agronomists advising the addition of a good quality, highly concentrated Seaweed added to the mix to not only improve the present crops but also reverses the trend and it actually improves the soil over time while growing your crops and pastures… THIS is what was missing, a small addition that will add all the trace elements, bring back soil life and raise moisture retention for those dry times.
Unlike simple one off chemical based products Concentrated Seaweed contains many vital nutrients that will turn your soil highly fertile within a very short time, without adding anything to the actual soil… it does this by increasing the nutrient given out by the feeder roots to feed the soil bacteria and protozoa, increasing the release of natural nitrogen and phosphates from your soil, this is the release of the fertilizer you have applied for years and is up to now in an unavailable form waiting for the application of the Seaperia SUPER CONCENTRATED Seaweed on the leaf of the crop or pasture.
Seaperia increases the amount of Chlorophyl in the crop leaf, thirty percent of the extra Sugars made by the leaf go to the root system building longer, stronger roots for bigger more dynamic, higher production in ALL crops, pastures and trees, supported by more fertile living soil.
Beautiful little native stingless bees on my peach blossom 😍
Don't forget, as soon as your tree looks like this, get that Seaperia out and spray those flowers.
You will get far more fruit and they will be bigger and sweeter than you've ever had I promise.
My babies are getting sprayed early tomorrow morning.
Monty loves his Seaperia Meal this much!
Karen from As Nature Intended sent this in to show us how much her gorgeous boy Monty loves his Seaperia Meal.
Karen said " He chased me when I took it off him - he ran after me jumping up at it 😆 "
Animals are amazing - they instinctively know what they need to be healthy. And we know it's good to give them something that's pure and natural.
Karen runs a great group that talks about how to keep puppers healthy the natural way.
Why not head over and show Karen some of our Seaweeder love... if you like to stick with what's natural for your furkid you will love her group As Nature Intended
Thanks Karen!
Talking organics, biodynamics and seaweed with Grahame The Seaweed Man and Robert from Mungalli Creek Dairies.
You know, I grew up in the days when Aussies were eating meat and three frozen veg cooked in aluminium saucepans.
But even back when I was knee-high to a grasshopper Dad was always talking about healthy, fresh food to anyone who would listen.
I must've heard the story about how a goldfish would die in an aluminium saucepan a thousand times.
We started with a little farm, 10 acres in the Adelaide Hills. In 1974 we moved to Queensland and Dad bought the BIG farm, 600 acres.
Then in the early 80s Dad bought a farm and station supply store. This was it!
This was his big opportunity to spread the word about seaweed and organic farming to the people who were growing our food, the local farmers who trooped through the door every day and every week.
And it worked. One of his biggest success stories is Mungalli Creek Dairies. Robert Watson credits Grahame with opening his eyes to the value of organic farming and food, and the Mungalli group is now one of the largest biodynamic dairies in Australia with an award-winning range of delicious yoghurt, cheese and icecream.
If you ever want to talk to someone about seaweed or soil or growing stuff organically then give Grahame a ring.
Set aside a bit of time though!... he has seen more and knows more about seaweed than probably anyone in Australia and he just loves to pass on his knowledge.
This is a bit of a lie 🤭
Actually I'm running a bit late but your March Seamail will be out next week.
The good news is that its not too late to join thousands of other Seaweeders and sign up here... you'll get a great read once a month plus a free packet of Dulse! 😮
Yes, not just a free download or a tiny percentage off... an actual free packet of the most delicious seaweed you will ever taste!
We make sure our Seaweeders are looked after 💚
Grahame's Wednesday Rant. Just a short one today but so so true...
💚Fertility is not made from Chemical Fertilizers, it is made over many years by careful and educated Soil Husbandry, with a love for the land that enables it to be handed on generation after generation in a better state than it was received, giving pride in our actions. and a basic honesty in knowing that we have treated our land well.
💚Fertility cannot be simply bought; it is a process that evolves from working with Nature and understanding how Nature Works. Building on that knowledge season after season, watching for the signs that show fertility is on the rise.
