This is cool it list information on virtually every nutrient and fertilizer. Not huge info but I am surprised how many fertilizers have arsenic in them. Kinda cool you can check for mineral purity.
Find your product alphabetically and see what other metals are in there.

Wow, awesome resource, it's a shame they don't include grams per ml as well. Thanks!

Much of that database info is incorrect.

Huh?

The Washington state database (specifically) uses the manufacturers spec sheets. On the West Coast you cannot simply create a 'nute' and stick it in a grow store and start pimping it out.

There is a long and rather expensive process to get approval. The latest changes in labeling laws last year forced Superthrive to discontinue sales in Oregon and 3 other states.

You're welcome.

At the national level the laws/regulations on these types of products are controlled by 3 agencies - FDA, USDA and Department of Labor.

When you get into what is and what is not approved for organic agriculture the mess really opens up.

Weird.
