I beg you! Where can I buy seaweed?

13 years ago

I am so tired of driving around...:( I problably went already to 3 home depot, 3 lowes, 3 wallmart, 5 nurseries and no luck.

Do they sell seaweed (liquid or powder)around here(Broward County)? When I ask people look at me like I am an crazy ET? LOL

Thank you.

Hi tropicalia, I buy mine online...I put the link below. I've never been able to find it locally anywhere. Shipping isn't too bad either in my opinion..

The stuff is soluble powder and you only use a tsp. per gallon of water...so it is very economical!

Here is a link that might be useful: Kelp Products of Florida, Inc

I was trying to avoid that. I did not know shipping wasn't too bad so I guess I can do this way then. I was looking another online company I think maxicrop? or something. Thanks for this link, it is closer, great.
I am having so much fun. I am reading stuff here and go around trying to buy, asking people,they make faces and get really curious to know what do I need that stuff for? :)

For the time being, try to put aside your feelings of hurt and rejection. I understand that they're there, and that you've got a perfect right to feel that way -- but put them away for a bit because they will cloud up the issue with hurt feelings and anger, and what you two really need is a productive problem-solving session. Right now, your marriage is in a rough patch. I don't know if it has reached crisis proportions yet, but without a change, it certainly can and probably will. So this issue is a big problem that deserves both of your full attention and effort. It's time for a sit down open and honest conversation. Michigan - You need to promise not to be overly emotional. Not to scream, yell, cry, throw things, accuse, blame or point fingers. Tell your husband that you will make the effort to do that, but that in turn, you need to ask him to be completely honest with you. Tell him how much you love him, and that you need his support and the emotional intimacy you got from love-making in the past. Tell him you understand things have changed - how could they not? (Every couple's sex life changes after the birth of a baby.) But that to be a good wife and mother, you still need some of the same closeness and romance that you two shared before your baby was born. That to be good parents and build a good family, you need a strong and committed marriage -- one that includes physical and emotional intimacy. Then listen. If he vaguely promises to "do better" you'll have to gently ask to dig a little deeper. I'd expect to hear some version of Madonna/Whore conflict -- There's a middle ground there if you two can find it. (Heck, the Catholic church can find it.) Again, don't accuse about the porn. Help him find his way back to you. And if you can't do it alone, bring in a counselor to help you both work through it. It's to important to let this aspect of your marriage die.

Well, I'm going to do something that I've been told over and over not to do ... make an example out of someone... Gibby I share your frustration with installer standards, but the reason it happens is the same reason that you see it happening in this thread. Recap: Poster-1 says that they see a problem with a certain execution in situation A. Expert gives the technical advice he has regularly given and that he has made popular here re: the what-to-dos vs. the what-not-to-dos re: exec of situation-A. At which time, poster-2 says that they are having the exact same problem with the exact same execution in situation-A also and what could be going on? (Er ...). More discourse about why idiot-installers persist with the behaviour that causes problem with situations-A. Poster-2 pops back up saying that they will repeat the behaviour that caused their and other's problem execution in situation-A. Well, if the person(s) most impacted by a poor execution or common executor problem - viz. the homeowner - won't learn, what would motivate the executor to learn???? THEY don't have to live with the problem and if the HO (poster-2) can't be bothered, why should they trouble themselves to be so? Bill, you were remarkably patient in that last response. When I read the previous post, *my* verbal response had a whole load of *F*s in it - from sheer incredulity.

FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE/USE SCENTS ONLY!!! I BEG YOU!
Q
Comments (67)
At my old business(a kennel) I used scent in various ways. I kept it super clean as a smelly kennel will turn customers away in a heartbeat. I did use those plug in scent things from Bath & Bodyworks. I loved the Eucalyptus Mint for the kennel training room. My clients always commented on how fresh the place smelled. Then I also planted scent producing plants around, mostly because I liked them, but it ended up being a great thing for the business. I had 2 Daphne Odora in the parking area and clients went nuts when they were in bloom. Then by the training field I had Osmanthus Fragrans. They bloom twice a year and clients apparently still remember the scent. One of my former clients(who became a friend) called me just last week. She moved into a new house and was on her deck and smelled a blooming Osmanthus. She told me “I flashed back to training on the field at Wolfbrook!” If someone could replicate either of those scents I’d buy it.

Can I propagate Rosa fortuniana through seed? Where can I buy it?
Q
Comments (5)
I have never seen Fortuniana set seed anywhere I have encountered or grown it. Fortuniana is considered to be a cross between R. Banksiae and R. Laevigata, therefore a hybrid which would not germinate true to the type from seed. So, no, IF you could find Fortuniana seed, you would not be able to raise the exact rose you are looking for from its seed. And, I know of no source for Fortuniana seed as it has never set seed in my experience. Where are you located? You may be able to obtain cuttings, depending upon where you live.

Oh, another place you might try is Ace hardware, I think they "might" carry Maxi-crop...also sometimes the Feed stores have them as well. Its just I really wanted the Norwegian Kelp that they sell on this website and it was very reasonable and lasts me a long time. Good luck with your search!

Yes I think I will go with yours. I was just looking and found that online but did not have my mind set in any brand was just the one I could find. Is there any difference? When you say feed stores, what that means? Sorry I don't know, what are some of the names? Well, now you can really see how new I am in the gardering area. :)

I bought mine from a local hydroponic store. That was many many years ago. You should give them a call fist before going there.

Tropicalia, I was told by a friend of mine that you could get it in Sears (she goes to the one on US1 and Sunrise). I haven't been there yet, but perhaps you can give them a call to see if they have it. Good luck.

Feed stores...go to the yellow pages of the phone book, should be listed under "F" for feed stores I think? Look for stores that cater to chicken, birds, horses and dogs...usually they sell to agriculture or people that have a mini farm or stable.

I'm not positive if there's a difference with the Kelp, but I've read great things about the Norwegian brand, so that's why I wanted to try it.
