Great video! Any recommendations for transporting seaweed from the beach without damaging it?

Thank you :) honestly, I've had no issue being pretty rough with them. I tend to be selective, so if I'm collecting large/leathery algae then they all just go in the same plastic bag, mixed in. They are very resilient. And the smaller more delicate ones, as long as they're kept moist, they do handle a lot of wear. Many of the smaller ones have to tolerate a lot of wave action in the shallow water so despite looking delicate, they're pretty tough.

Really found this helpful thank you! Nice to see the seaweed being collected too! Could I ask what you mean by ‘blotting paper’

[@wahajmahmood-brown2269]

Thanks very much :) blotting paper is often used in art, for absorbing moisture. Usually from the surface of fresh watercolours where too much water is sat on the paper. It helps in the drying process. But alternatively you can use regular white paper or watercolour paper. Blotting paper is just what I choose to use.
