Just as an FYI. Fertilizer is reported as oxides for several nutrients. So even though the label says K2O and P2O5, Richard was probably using fertilizers like diammonium phosphate and potassium nitrate as the actual sources o f P and K. All I will say otherwise is please do not put that phosphorus out in Florida on bananas.

And I saw that you had the basic magnesium but could also include a profound break down other materials like
Magnesium oxide (MgO) OR Manganese oxide (Mn2O3)

I might not know much about bananas but im pretty good in chem. and these elements I just realized they were all water soluble some I described cannot be water soluble so I definitely understand why their not there in the first place but you can mix up two together to make the perfect fertilizer most of these elements I described can be in rock dust such as azomite besides the (Ca-P) but I think simply mixing the two will be such a good boost profitable for you and its a WIN WIN situation you put a little extra time we get an incredible product
