Bigger and Better Plants from their Nutrients
Get your best yield yet....
Just as how when we don't eat correctly we struggle, it is the same for plants.
Additional nutrients offer your plants another layer of health and protection to help you treat deficiencies and boost your yield. Where it takes a bit of knowledge is providing them without causing burns or discolourisation.
Having a basic understanding is a good thing... plants need light, water and a decent substrate to survive. What makes them thrive is the quality of the nutrients.
The proper amount of nutrients will help to keep the plants healthy and be in optimal condition for the most efficient photosynthetic process. There is a massive difference in the quality of nutrients and therefore do your research before deciding what nutrients you are going to buy. Nutrients that are good quality will help to boost their immune system and fight off fungi and bacteria.
Check your plants regularly
Checking your plants on a regular basis help you to keep them in good condition. You can decide how much light, water and nutrients they get, set the climate and make adjustments as necessary to keep them thriving.
Take time to analyse your plants and figure out what they are telling you.
Common deficiencies include
nitrogen,
magnesium,
iron and
potassium. The links will show you exactly what to look out for such as leaf discolourisation, low yields and limpness.
Education and Knowledge
The nature of science is that things are always improving, both by research and experimentation.
Experimentation will take time and often lead to a certain amount of mistakes along the way. Plenty of this is performed by those who design our nutrients and they will market them when they are as close to perfection as possible.
When launched they will also provide feed charts. We have plenty of those published here for you to take into account when nurturing your plants, from the likes of Dutchpro, Canna, BioBizz and many more.
Keep them Thriving
Providing the best quality nutrients will help your plants thrive and using the feed charts will ensure they are receiving the correct quantities. It will also help to keep things consistent.
A few simple tips are here:
- Check your plants on a daily basis and look for deficiencies and nutrient burns
- Check the pH of your reservoir
- Check the PPM of nutrients in your reservoir
- Refresh your reservoir on a weekly basis. This will help to remove bacteria and stabilise the PPM
- Have access to the right ratio of nutrients.
- Be sure not to overfeed or underfeed
