Hmmmm… I wonder if biochar would help with these situations? The first time I heard of this, a local permacuturist gardener came to me for some biochar for what she described as this exact problem - she had used horse biscuit fertilizer as a top dressing on her tomatoes, beans, and squash beds and the plants were sickly. She bought a quantity of biochar and applied it - fortunately she had not tilled in the harshit so it was easy to scuffle in the biochar. In several weeks her plants were looking healthy. Majick? Or Science... You be da judge (just not one like Bruce!). Could be that biochar's known ability to adsorb nasty chemicals is not a drawback as "We" said it was! If nothing else, she sequestered about 72 pounds of formerly atmospheric CO2 with her 20 pounds of biochar.
You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
