When using Kelp, did anyone else smell and taste the kelp in the end product.? Please respond if you have. Thanks.

I found it to impart a kelp smell and taste to the cured product that is horrible....truly sea-weed.
I think kelp is more of a veg product than a flowering product...The best one out there is called "SeaSol"...It's prosessed in Australia and so far I've had no luck trying to get someone to import this product to the states...I use MaxiCrop liquified seaweed during veg...Excellent for building strong roots...I wouldn't use seaweed,kelp,or Alaska fish fertilizer during flowering though...
