Seaweed can be good for your garden

Dear Editor, With all the talk about the negative impacts of the seaweed in Muri, it was good to read the letter in Saturday’s CI News about a possible use of the seaweed. Unfortunately, while some Caulerpa species, such as our sea grapes or rimu, are edible, it is unlikely that this Caulerpa species, or the other problem seaweed, Boodlea sp, can be eaten.
