I am looking for some Neptunes Harvest Seaweed fertilizer where can I find this locally? I live in Aumsville about 15 miles east of Salem.

Fertrell has a distributor, in Portland, Oregon, listed in their catalog which is on line. They have both products you seek individualy or in a single product plus many other fine natural products. They do not do Neptunes Harvest. They have alternatives I believe, to be equal, in quality.
Locally Neptunes Harvest products are within most if not all large garden chemical sales displays. It is also sold on line by many mail order companies.

Off hand does anyone know the shelf life of this stuff?
Reason I ask is because I purchased some last May and still have a bottle of it left, It was kept in a dark cool place but it seems like the top portion of it has turned to an Oil but the bottom section is still bage brown, I guess this is from sitting, stuff still smells the same and when shaken it goes back to normal should still be good to use on plants eh?

Do you Prefer to use Neptunes as an foiler or drench or both? and at what rate? I think i'm cutting mine too much as I use a small spray bottle for misting the bottle holds probably 1 liter of water and I use 1 tsp to full bottle of luke warm water. when I drench them I use 1 gallon jug and add 1 tbs neptunes 1 pinch of seaweed extract and 1/2 tsp of mollases. I'm probably way overkilling this stuff with water But I guess its better to under do it then over apply

Dave if you are applying this as a foliar regularly I would say what you are doing is fine. Have to remember the rates they recommend 1TBSP per Gallon 1s for a once every three weeks application. I have a 55 Gallon barrel full of the stuff so I use it as both.

I havent done any drenches yet, when plants first hit the ground i did 2 applications of 10-52-10 with a weekly foiler of my mixture i probably wont do drenching till i get fruits set.
thanks Dave

I've found Neptune's Harvest at abhout 1/2 price on EBAY. I know - nasty word, but since my wife taught me how to spell it on this keyboard, I save money (even with the shipping)!
