Just a thought on the corn gluten...I may have picked this up
on this list or at a seminar...yes, corn gluten is touted by most as being
organic and in many cases it's advertised as such...but isn't. In order
for corn gluten to be organic it would have to come from a corn crop that was
grown organically. While I don't know for certain I have my doubts if much
of the gluten that's used for weed suppression is in fact from organic corn or
even better from certified organic corn.
This is probably only an issue for purists...which I am
not. Nonetheless, I think our readers should be aware that while natural,
corn gluten may not be organic in the sense that it is derived from corn that
has been certified as organic.
