The humifulvate is the natural ingredients to detoxify a heavy metal such as mercury, cadmium, aluminum, nickel, copper, lead and arsenic. It is also used in boosting human health.

~I am still in the middle of testing this but heavy metal seems to stunt plants growth.~
Hyperaccumulation of heavy metals is the uptake of heavy metals by plants passed a certain threshold of normal uptake. There are 6 main hypotheses for this phenomena, but the most researched one is the defense-hypothesis which states that the hyperaccumulation helps plants to protect themselves from herbivore/pathogen damage.
The metals having density more than 5 are usually known as heavy metals. Density of some heavy metals is as below: Zinc (Zn) 7.13 Iron (Fe) 7.87 Copper (Cu) 8.96 Silver (Ag) 10.49 Lead (Pb) 11.36 Mercury (Hg) 13.55 We use fertilizers which contain elements having density more 5 or more than 5 like zinc sulphate or copper sulphate ets. so we can say that plants take these heavy metals in shape of fertilizers.

Heavy metals are typically found in the middle of the periodic table. These heavy metals are often also transition metals.
Heavy metals compounds have frequently toxic properties.
Yes, platinum is heavy compared to other metals.
No, calcium gluconate, magnesium sulfate, and potassium phosphate are not heavy metals. They are inorganic salts commonly used in pharmaceuticals and medicine for various purposes. Heavy metals typically include elements like lead, mercury, and cadmium.
Ammonia is added in heavy metals limit tests to precipitate heavy metals as their insoluble hydroxides. This allows for the separation of heavy metals from other interfering substances in the sample, making it easier to detect and quantitate the heavy metals present.
Phosphorus fertilizer can exacerbate the mobility and bioavailability of heavy metals in contaminated soils. It may enhance the solubility of certain metals, increasing their uptake by plants, which can lead to higher concentrations of these toxic elements in the food chain. However, phosphorus can also help immobilize some heavy metals by forming stable complexes, potentially reducing their phytotoxicity. The overall effect depends on the specific soil composition, heavy metal types, and environmental conditions.
