Liquid nutrients are easier, more reliable, and cost effective. But how?
Contrary to belief, they are not merely diluted dry powders. Liquid concentrates are, in fact, nutrient-rich, pre-mixed solutions that offer superior consistency and performance compared with their dry counterparts.
Unlike dry powders,
which require conversion into liquid concentrates before application, liquid fertilizers come ready in a concentrated liquid form. The process of preparing a nutrient stock solution from a liquid concentrate is uncomplicated, hassle-free and convenient. This is because the nutrients are already in a concentrated liquid state, eliminating the risk of improper mixing and subsequent precipitation of nutrient compounds, which can render them inaccessible to plants.
The advantage of using liquid concentrates becomes evident in the consistency of applications throughout the crop life cycle. When measuring out a liquid concentrate, you ensure uniformity in nutrient delivery, week after week.
Improper mixing can be devastating!
By contrast,
the granular nature of dry powders leads to variations in the concentration of active ingredients in each spoonful, affecting the reliability and consistency of your feeding program.
Furthermore, liquid concentrates faster acting than dry powders. This is due to the fact that the essential plant nutrients in liquid concentrates are already in forms readily available for root uptake, without being bound up with granular matter. This rapid absorption makes liquid concentrates particularly well-suited to hydroponic systems, where their active ingredients are immediately accessible to plants.
Choose a nutrient line that constitutes a comprehensive feeding program requiring no unnecessary steps.
