Foliage Pro does not have Sulfur in the bottle, requiring potassium sulfate to be complete. If it did, it would precipitate.

That's funny. The label is guaranteed minimum analysis in the bottle. They guarantee there is zero sulfur in the bottle.

0.05% is 500 ppm sulfur, which would precipitate in the bottle. I seriously doubt this.

I asked Dyna-Gro for a typical analysis on the sulfur content of Foliage Pro. Perhaps they will answer this themselves.

How do you figure 500ppm? And i am going to believe the analysis.

Math is hard. Did you want me to Google that for you?

If they are CGMP, they have their products independently tested, so it's not Dyna-Gro putting out their own testing numbers.

It's part of what I do for a living. Testing things for weed, not being bored.

I asked you a question. You dont have to be rude. I wasnt the one arguing with incorrect info and assumptions. And you alerted me here.

I'm trying to speak about facts regardless of your feelings. You sound like a millennial.

Dyna-Gro guarantees there is zero sulfur in the bottle thanks to the label. 0.05% sulfur claimed on the website is 500 ppm and may may cause precipitation of the chemicals in the bottle. Agreed?

Then let's see some test results instead of hearing millennials just spout their feelings off.

What millennials and what feelings?

And what test results? I dont even know why you are calling me into this old thread. You made a statement and when i looked it up you were wrong. Is there more you wanted to tell me?

0.05% is not 500pm of sulfur lmao. They’re rate is roughly 5ml per gallon, how the hell did you get 500ppm of sulfur out of .05% analysis. Plug the bottle into a Pom calculator and it’ll show you the exact ppm but it’s nowhere close to 500ppms if it’s 5ml/ gallon and the concentration is 0.05% sulfur...

ppm to percent conversion table
ppmPercent (%)
500 ppm0.05%

In order to express the results as a percent, divide the nutrient content (which is expressed in ppm) by 10,000. For example, if the reported value for P2O5 is 2,690 ppm, the calculation to convert to percent would be: 2,690 ppm ÷ 10,000 = 0.269%. This is for the concentrate before dilution for final solution.
