its very lil mercury and its vaporized quickly so the biggest threat is inhaling it.

You bet ur sweet buds it's toxic!!! MERCURY IS EXTREMELY TOXIC and can be inhaled and absorbed through the skin and mucous membranes...that goes for your plants roots and leaves as well! Flush your girl out really well and toss some molasses & chamomile (dissolved in water of course) in there afterwards. Maybe even consider flushing twice.
Maybe I am just overreacting, I dunno, I'm kinda weird

please pardon my ignorance, but what does chamomile do for your plant????

Chamomile is a great source of potash, calcium and sulfur, and is also good at boosting your plants. Also, it perks your plant up after the flushing, or any kind of stress for that matter. I had a dying seedling a while back and I am convinced it was the chamomile that saved it. Try it out some time.
O yea, it also makes your plants smell AWESOME!
This is just something I picked up working at a garden center a few years back.

Your buds will be sweeter if u use actual tea grounds vs composting the entire plant. Perhaps use 4-6 tea bags per gallon of water and a 1/2cup or so of molasses, great combo . . . highly recommended.
