EASY-TO-USE-DIRECTIONS

TREES:
Apply at a rate of 0.5 Kg per 2.5 cm (1 lb. per 1 in.) of diameter of the tree's trunk. Feeder roots of a large tree tend to be far from the trunk, roughly at the tree's drip line - under the broadest spread of the tree's branches. Make holes in the ground around the drip line, then add seaweed meal to the holes, or apply generously to the soil under the tree's foliage.

VEGETABLES, FLOWERS, FRUIT, LAWNS:
0.5 kg per 10 square metres (1 lb. per 100 square feet) mixed into soil spring and fall.

BULBS: 1 Tbsp. of seaweed meal per bulb mixed into soil at time of planting.

HOUSEPLANTS:
1 Tbsp. for a 6-inch pot (not per 6-inch of diameter) mixed into potting soil before potting, or worked into soil of already-potted plants. Please note that a 12-inch pot contains more than twice as much soil as a 6-inch pot, and would easily take 3 to 4 tablespoons.

FOR EXPERIENCED GARDENERS:
In spite of the above application rates (twice a year is a good idea), any amount will benefit soil and plants, and two to three times the recommended rates is neither excessive nor harmful.

Depending on how depleted your soil is, and how fast you want to fix it, there is a great deal of flexibility in how much you use, bearing in mind that excessive amounts of anything is not a good idea. In research and in commerce, plants can be "stalled" (to retard blooming, for example), by planting them in straight seaweed meal.
