I also use seaweed for micronutrients.  Jim, I think Master Nurserymen products are still out here.  Because I grow organically, I order from my closest organic supplier (which I often mention here because of my familiarity with them) Peaceful Valley Farm Supply, at groworganic.com.  They definitely ship, have quantities like you’re looking for, and have a broad spectrum of fertilizers, plant nutrients, and soil amendments.  I feel that by using ‘whole’ fertilizers, rather than isolated nitrates, my plants get a good provision of micronutrients.   But these comments make the not-particularly-safe assumption that you want a micronutrient blend.  Individual nutrients to balance your soil specifically might be harder to come by.  If that’s what you’re looking for, I hope someone here will find you a source.

Sounds like seaweed extract to me. I have never been anywhere that it wasn't available locally, but I've never lived in a town of fewer than 500k people.

    When I lived in California, I could buy 2 pound bags of nearly any kind
of fertilizer, including micronutrients, anyone could want.  A company
called "Master Nurserymen" put it out but I haven't been able to connect
with anyone who will do mail-order.

    Do any of you know where I can buy small quantities of micronutrient
fertilizer (salts of zinc, cobalt, boron, manganese, molybdenum, copper,
iron, etc.)

    Thanks.
