I was leery of using it since I could not find any info about it on this site, I had to e-mailed Kelp4less to get both the folaif and soil mixture, they stated

We recommend using 1 tsp per gallon as a foliar spray, use 1/3 to 1 tsp per gallon for soil drench depending on the size of the plants/ strength required. This product goes into solution pretty easily, however less agitation/stirring will be required with warmer water. FYI 1 tsp in a gallon should give you approx. 700 PPM.

I thought this may be the same product Hollands giants sells.

$35 at Amazon for 10 pounds and $80 at kelp4less

Got my 50 pound bag from Hydro-Gardens. It ended up being $122 including shipping. 50 pounds should last me a while. lol

I looked into Hydro-Gardens,the one page shipping info scared me off, Amazon is where I always start looking for products to compare prices and shipping with other companies

Able to cancel my order and get a refund. I then ordered a smaller and cheaper amount off Amazon. Much better. :)

I will probably package in smaller bags and offer some to local growers.
