FAQs

How often should I use Marshalls Garden Seaweed Feed?

For general feeding, apply every 1-2 weeks during the active growing season. For seed soaking, use once before planting.

Can I use this on edible plants?

Yes, this is an organic seaweed feed and is safe for use on all edible plants, including vegetables and fruits.

What is the dilution ratio for general use?

The recommended dilution for general plant feeding is typically 20ml of concentrate per 1 liter of water (a 1:50 ratio).

How long does one bottle last?

One 1L bottle can treat approximately 30 watering cans when diluted for general use, making it a cost-effective option.

Is this feed suitable for houseplants?

Yes, it can be used on houseplants. Ensure proper dilution and avoid over-watering. Apply during their active growing periods.

What is the shelf life of the product?

When stored correctly in its original, sealed container, the product typically has a shelf life of 2-3 years.

Can I mix it with other liquid feeds?

It's generally best to use seaweed feed on its own or follow specific product mixing guidelines. Avoid mixing directly with highly concentrated chemical fertilizers, as this can sometimes cause nutrient imbalances or plant stress.

Troubleshooting

Yellowing leaves on plants after application

This may indicate over-application. Ensure you are diluting the feed correctly according to the instructions. If over-applied, flush the soil with plain water.

No noticeable improvement in plant growth

Ensure the feed is being applied regularly and at the correct dilution. Check environmental factors such as sunlight, water, and soil quality, as these also significantly impact plant growth.

Seed germination rate has not improved

Confirm that seeds were soaked for the recommended duration (12-24 hours) in the correct dilution (1:10). Ensure other germination conditions (temperature, moisture, light) are optimal.

Product smells strongly

Seaweed products often have a natural, strong odor. This is normal and does not affect the product's efficacy. Ensure good ventilation when mixing and applying.
