The seaweed does work great as a mulch, but I've noticed at least one problem with it. As it begins to dry, birds remove portions of it from the base of the plants, and I often find it strewn along the garden paths.
Worse, though the photo does not clearly show it, as the birds are scratching around the seaweed mulch looking for insects, they end up burying some of the young plants with the mulch (in this case, recently planted kale).
