Organic Calmag TPS

I'm going to do a vinegar/eggshell project this week for organic soluble calcium and I have molasses, but I was wondering if anybody has ever used this product.

It's the only calmag bottle I found so far that claims to be truly organic. Any feedback?

I'm just starting to understand this, but isn't calcium nitrate the more synthetic form and calcium carbonate natural? They also seem to use fulvic acid in the process which I read good things about.
This is from the Q&A section where 1 guy asked what it's made of:
A: We start with a highly pure organic source of magnesium carbonate and calcium hydroxide, we then micro-chelate it with a plant extract package, and finally react it with a proprietary blend of three organic acids. The result is the most bioavailable CalMag in the gardening and hydroponic industry. One example of this is that when this CalMag is used in soil it is approximately 18 times more effective the nitrate calmags, and without the additional pollution from excess nitrates.

Every brand claims “high bioavailability”. I’m not saying that stuff isn’t good, but I personally stay away from claims of “proprietary” processes when it comes to gardening. Nitrate will be used by the plants anyway, that’s literally how aquaculture works. The verbiage comes off a bit car salesman to me, but try it, let us know how it works for you.

Haha, I was hoping to find someone that has already used it. I guess certain brands are just more popular than others around the grower community (general hydroponics/organics, botanicare).
