How about using organically grown GMO gluten for a herbicide? Just curious. Isn't GMO corn chemically the same as any other corn, only with slightly different proportions? I would think so. After all, if grown organically, it's made with the same soil nutrients and sunshine as any other organic corn, its just had its DNA programmed to arrange those nutrients differently. And why shouldn't we have organically grown GMO corn that's labeled as organic? Organic, as far as I know, pertains to the way it's grown, not the result of it's growth. Can't you have organic Nightshade? Isn't the Cyanide from organically grown peach pits still organic? I think so. I can't see how using organically grown GMO corn gluten for a herbicide could violate any organic standards. But hey, I could be wrong. Logic doesn't always meet legal standards. :)

Wouldn't corn gluten be mostly make from GMO corn?
Any carryover?
Which certifiers OK the use of corn gluten?
I would love to use this product but always thought it wouldn't be acceptable to organic ceritfication.
