[QUOTE="Deer Slayer, post: 1858045, member: 8855"] I am familiar with the "sea salts" and they work temporarily. Why temporarily you ask? Continued use,even in small quantities, over time canl build up soluble salts and total chlorides in the soil. These build ups reduce the plants ability to uptake nutrients. Oil based drilling mud and water based drill mud which is being applied to farmers fields contains salts and if the application rates are not followed it will result in the crop yield or productivity dropping. I currently have 2 salt contaminated fields to remediate as soon as we can get some moisture to begin treatments. The sea salts,initially,sound too good to be true but long term could possibly lead to trouble. One of the remediation projects had a 4" layer of water based drilling mud applied 8 years ago. This Spring the owner drilled oats into the field and the seeds came up approx 3" and then died. A soil analysis revealed low levels of salt. The owner was stunned. [/QUOTE]
