Nowhere on their site does it say that their ferilizers are organic. Like I said, only Big Bloom is 100% organic. Their soils are organic as well but Grow Big and Tiger Bloom and the solubles are not even close to organic.
Dude!!!!!!!!! Get over it. To begin with saying organic officially doesn't mean squat as there are as many defintions for organic as there are snake oil products so by nutrient manafacurers. Evertime some one sneezes another product is prodi uced ab nd the term orgainic is used in a different fashion. Oraginic in one ins dustry or scientific disciplines is different than in a nother. In the fruit and vegetable industry say to be organic no chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides were used in its groth. By that definition Fox Farm's nutrients are chiefly organic. In the chemsitry fiek ld if the compound has carbon hydrogen chains it is organic whether of natural origins or man made. That maens ptroleum vby definition is organic. In the biblical sense if it is of this earth it is earth organic.
Your entire argument is moot unless you provide a definition for organic upon which to base an argument. Fox Fram repeatedly says they make fertilizers and soil prepartions with orgainic based substances and mineral powders. Mineral powders by neraly evryone are considered organic. A ground up rock is about as natural as you can get. your focusing on a definition for organic apparentlly but you have not defined what you consider i is organic.
Typically in the nutrient industry if it is entirely of systrehesis and refined minerals, acids, hydroxides etc it is considered a chemical fertilizer, other wise it is typically classified as organic, regardless of waht orgainic might actually be defined as in other areas of industry or commerce.
Because of silly arguments such as yours and the misuse and abuse of the term organic and allatural for by manaafcturers and retailers the trade commission, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and most governing agencies that regulate industries etc where that term may be used have tried to control or eliminate it's used in advertising. As such it is easy to see why Fox Farm. Which solubles are you saying or arguing are not organic and again, what do you think organic means. For example is H2O organic? Is CO2 organic? Is methane gas (CH4) organic. Is ammoni organic (NH3).
1)An '
organic compound' refers to any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon, with exception of carbides, carbonates and carbon oxides.
3) Organic
food raised without chemicals and processed without additives. Under standards adopted by the U.S. Agriculture Dept. (USDA) in 2000 and fully effective in 2002, synthetic fertilizers and pesticides and antibiotics may not be used in raising organic foods, and the use of irradiation, biotechnology, and sewer-sludge fertilizer is also banned. Food whose ingredients are at least 95% organic by weight may carry the "USDA ORGANIC" label; products containing only organic ingredients are labeled 100% organic.
2)
the chemistry of compounds that contain both carbon and hydrogen
95% of the compounds that have isolated from natural sources or synthesized in the laboratory are organic by this definition.
Most compounds extracted from living organisms contain carbon. It is therefore tempting to identify organic chemistry as the chemistry of carbon. But this definition would include compounds such as calcium carbonate (CaCO3), as well as the elemental forms of carbon - diamond and graphite - that are clearly inorganic as they contain no hydrogen.
Basically your argument is moot as you haven't even absed your argument on a definition of organic.
