Nope. You're wasting your money. Not even close to the needs but the worst thing about it is that at multiple times the rate, some of that stuff won't do crap. Im talking only from my own experience. Your dirt may be different. Those "fix all jugs might be ok to throw in when you spray your yard but not here. Copper is a joke (for me). You aren't going to raise your tissue level unless you use some sort of foliar and then yield won't go up. Boron (i know you didn't ask about it) is another. Waste of time and money. Manganese is important for yield, but if your ph is close to mine, soil applied won't do squat. I'll bet your soil test shows low on mn. The only way that mn will improve is by foliar feeding. I go through totes of it. My soybeans get sprayed 3 times with mn. If im on high ph ground my corn will also get a qt. of mn. Zinc and Sulphur is in my starter (liquid 2x2). Those 2 work good soil applied. Forget the jug that fixes everything. Also, buying zinc, Sulphur and mn individually will save you lots of money.
