Micronutrients and acids

Was wondering if their was a good one part liquid supplement that would provide all the micronutrients such as zinc, boron etc. Also wondering if it actually makes a noticeable difference? I only do macros and calmag but was curious as to whether im missingout.

Also, has anyone noticed a significant difference when supplying the plant with humic and fulvic acids?

Youll have to supply some details about how you grow, hydro, soil, what kind of soil?

Yeah sorry I completely forgot to give the details.

High pressure Aeroponics
Nutri+ Grow plus Bloom formulas (both the same lol)

If I remember correctly the base nutes contain iron, molybdenum and sulfur I believe. I'll have to double check when I get home.

The HPA would rule out anything that can clog the nozzles. Thats why I use liquid nutes otherwise I'd go with maxibloom or something. I have a pre filter but still.

if your doing good with hpa... stay the course.



experiment with smaller containers .



those things clog so easy. not to mention if for some reason you ever got algae or slimes .... guh their terrible system to clean.


bare essentials wit a system like that pal

I haven't had to clean anything since getting it though that could be due to the filter plus running some hydrogen peroxide. The system has been super reliable overall. I don't think any inorganic liquid supplement would hurt.

What about foliar spray? Or if I were running DWC/Ebb system?
 
Most of the micronutrients are co-factors in enzymes that synthesize higher molecules from NPK such as amino acids, proteins, phospholipids. Deficiencies in the micronutrients can manifest as a N or P deficiency and you will end up adding more NPK, to no avail. Visit the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI) website for more info. Good luck.
