So, I'm a professional grower in a legal state, and I buy all my equipment at the same place in town. I prefer to spend my money locally whenever possible. Anyhow, I grab a bottle of Cal-Mag + because I run RO water and I need to supplement those minerals. On more than one occasion, I've had somebody tell me that the stuff is full of heavy metals and it won't flush out of my plants, and it will kill my patients....yadda, yadda, yadda.
So, I go to www.aapfco.org/metals.htm to look up Cal-Mag Plus. According to this organization, there are zero heavy metals in this product, and there are no warnings about its use on crops destined for human consumption or inhalation.
Does anyone here know why so many people are taking shit about this stuff? I changed over to the organicare line to replace the Cal-Mag, but this new stuff is a pain in the ass to use. You have to mix it, and use huge volumes comparatively.
Unless someone can give me a link to some legitimate information on any ill effects of using Cal-Mag Plus, please send them my way. I want to use the best I can on my girls, but I also don't want to abandon a product that has worked perfectly well just because some some dude (including store employes) told me some inaccurate info.
