Open up your eyes - explain to me how they “sprayed” 20 extra POUNDS of aluminum per 100 pounds of soil all over his farm. You CAN’T increase aluminum by 5x that way - the elevation of his farm would have to go up several feet.

Now, giving the farmer the benefit of the doubt, he MUST mean bioavailable aluminum is up - but the problem there is that the first symptom of elevated aluminum ion in soil is chlorosis - the plants all stop bleaching. Want to claim his GMO corn is resistant to that - fine - what about all the weeds and grass and sunflowers - why are none of them bleached?

And why does he lie about the sunflowers? Mature sunflowers stop tracking the sun and point perpetually east. That video shows the sun high in the south and the MATURE sunflowers pointing EAST. Any REAL farmer knows that. And REAL farmers knows if his bioavailable aluminum is too high he has low soil pH and needs lime. So he’s not a real farmer or he’s laying out multiple lies.

Which is it?

“Yellowing of the areas between the veins (interveinal chlorosis) is usually indicative of manganese, iron or magnesium deficiency. Iron deficiency affects the youngest leaves first, whereas the symptoms of manganese and magnesium deficiency tend to start in the older leaves.

“Nitrogen deficiency causes a more general yellowing or reddening, initially usually of the older leaves, often accompanied by a lack of vigour. With potassium deficiency the yellowing is often more pronounced at the leaf edges.”
