It is outdated information and this is a dead horse you guys are beating.

This mine waste product everyone continues to disparge hasn't been around
since 2006
when the brand was sold and the ingredients changed. There is nothing
harmful in Ironite products today.

As for the greensand, kelp and fish ferts as organic or alternatives? I'm
betting no anyone here has actually compared the arsenic and lead levels
in
these various alternative products to the levels in the Ironite products
presently on the market today. If so, please show the reference with
date. If referencing a lawsuit, please show the actual outcome, not the
news release.

There have been several citations posted here. Now, since you are
challenging them all, please provide information which says since the
brand was sold, the ingredients changed. Please prove yourself.

As for arsenic levels found in greensand; not bloody likely.

The point here is not ONLY the overuse or misuse of Ironite, it is
information which is currently informing people who garden that it is
more than just a plant and a synthetic fertilizer which will sustain
health in plants. The proof is in the pudding. Not some, but all
people I know who garden organically, not using any pesticides at all
of any nature, have virtually no insect infestations. Rather, they
have a more balanced situation where some pests are there and
tolerated until their predators are allowed to catch up. Eventually,
there are enough beneficial insects to dispel infestations.

Insects like green lacewings, ladybeetles and other insects while in
larval phase are vorascious eaters of spider mites, aphids, and most
other pest insects.

Do your own research, don't blindly believe me. But do give me proof
the brand, after being sold no longer poses a threat.
