Fertilizer Fraud? The Truth Behind 60–90 Element Claims

About this episode

Dr. Russell Sharp discusses the validity of fertilizer claims regarding chemical elements and urges scrutiny of manufacturers.

Dr. Russell Sharp examines fertiliser products that claim to contain dozens to 90+ chemical elements, using the periodic table to show why many of those claims are impossible, radioactive, or potentially toxic. He explains that plants only need around a dozen essential nutrients (plus a few beneficials), points out which elements can’t realistically be present, and urges listeners to question manufacturers and check ingredient lists. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/ Croptec Cereals Diddly Squat Farm Jeremy Clarkson
