Just to let everyone know-my rock phosphate is just that-rock
phosphate, almost mined in my own back yard! WHEW!! The fertilizer
dealer was at home on vacation, so I went to his house & made him
drive to the office & SHOW me proof-I was nice-I dressed up ; } ! He
actually admitted to almost delivering the synthetic stuff, wasn't too
sure I knew what I was talking about! Idiot.

I'd done every conceivable possible thing to ensure I was doing the
right thing. Technically I'm not certified. I don't jump through
hoops for anyone, and don't plan to now. I was more concerned about
possible damage to my soil. So my soil & I are in the clear. Can't
wait to get it under my fingernails!!
