While phosphorus is a vital macronutrient, like all nutrients, it must be present in the right quantities. Too little or too much phosphorus can lead to significant issues that negatively impact plant health and yield. In this post, we will dive into the problems associated with phosphorus deficiencies and excesses in cannabis cultivation, and how to address these issues effectively.
As one of the core components of the famous N-P-K ratio, phosphorus plays a crucial role in various biological processes that are fundamental to the health and productivity of cannabis plants. In this post, we will explore why phosphorus is so important for cannabis, how it affects plant development, and the key roles it plays throughout the growth cycle.
Organic sources of sulfur are often preferred in sustainable cannabis cultivation because they improve soil health while delivering essential nutrients in a natural, bioavailable form. Unlike synthetic alternatives, organic amendments typically release sulfur slowly, ensuring a steady nutrient supply over time.
In our last post, we talked about why sulfur is important for plant health [link]. But just like with any nutrient, too much or too little sulfur can cause problems. Today, we’re going to break down what happens when sulfur levels get out of balance, and some of the most common causes. Let’s dig in!
Sulfur is a naturally occurring element that’s found in soil, air, and water. It’s considered a secondary macronutrient, which means plants need it in smaller amounts than nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium—but it’s still vital to their growth and overall health.
Calcium plays a crucial role in plant development, influencing everything from cell wall structure to nutrient uptake. Here’s what we’ve learned from our extensive dataset.
In our continuing series, we turn our attention to organic sources of calcium and their application methods.
Calcium is crucial for your plants because it helps build strong cell walls, supports root growth, aids in nutrient transport, and protects against diseases. But just like anything else, balance is key. Based on our years of research, the target ppm ranges for Calcium (Ca) in the Veg and Flower stages are as follows:
In this article, we’re going to learn about a super important nutrient for your plants: calcium. Just like we need strong bones to grow big and strong, plants need calcium to stay healthy and grow tall.
Just like Goldilocks, your plants need their sodium levels to be just right. Too little, and they struggle to grow. Too much, and they could face toxicity. Let’s break down the effects of both extremes.
