Hydroponic Nutrients for Soil

Nutrients are essential components required by plants, animals and people alike. They are required to ensure that all processes work perfectly.

All plants need nutrients in specific needs and the demand keeps varying according to the stage and age of the plant. Irrespective of whether the plant is grown in soil or hydroponically, the nutrient demand is almost the same.

The mode of supply is what differs between the two techniques of growing. Let’s look at Hydroponic nutrients in detail.

Fertilizers for Hydroponics

Fertilizers that are recommended for hydroponics are not the same as those for cultivation in soil. When buying fertilizer for the former, growers can choose from combinations that target root, flower or plant growth. The nutrient values will also differ if the plant is an orchid or cacti.

The Requirement for Essential Trace Elements

Trace or micro elements are required by plants in very small quantities. The hydroponics fertilizer have successfully identified these elements and understood that their absence can create growth problems in a plant. Plants that are grown hydroponically get these trace elements in sufficient quantities and there is little or no impurity, which adds to their stability.

Macronutrients required by Hydroponics

The nutrients that are required in huge quantities fall into this category. The most common among such potions are sulfur, oxygen, phosphorous, magnesium and potassium to name a few. Each one of them has a crucial role to play and behaves differently when supplied in a soluble form. In the natural environment, nitrogen gets lost in heavy rain and phosphorous can only be absorbed if mixed in the soil culture. This problem is eliminated in hydroponics as the nutrients are available in the right quantities to the plants.

Choose Between Organic or Inorganic

In organic fertilizers, the components need to be first decomposed by natural bacteria, before they can be supplied to a plant. But in inorganic varieties, the elements are in a chemical form that the plant can soak right away. They both are good choices, but in the case of organic fertilizers the nutrient levels needs to be controlled more strictly and hence needs much more effort.
