Absolutely! Just compost it with the rest of your materials!

Can you please comment on the benefits of freshwater seaweed versus ocean kelp for use in a compost tea to use on plants?
Thanks.

I'm sorry, Peter - but living in the Midwest, I don't have much experience with ocean kelp! You might want to check a University that would be more likely to be doing that kind of research!
