Franky, this statement is off base. NOP standards require allowed
inputs for potting mixes and greenhouse fertilizers.
The organic inspector and the certification agency are still the primary
check for organic certification.
You can expect the potting mix labels to be scrutinized and
even digitally photographed during organic inspection; the
report is submitted to the certification agency who checks
compliance with organic standards.
