Signs of plant nutrient deficiency include:
– Yellowing of the edges of old fully grown leaves indicates a manganese deficiency.
– Yellowing of area between leaf veins, followed by spreading yellowing to young leaves and lower down the stem, indicates an iron deficiency.
– Chlorosis of leaves, manifested by a pale green color of leaf plate, indicates a nitrogen deficiency.
– Yellow margins on the leaves, turning reddish-purple and leading to the appearance of spots and leaf drop, indicate a need for magnesium.
– The bronze tint on the leaves indicates a phosphorus deficiency, while the violet-blue tint indicates a potassium deficiency. Plants also slow down their growth.
– Zinc deficiency causes stem growth delay, leading to the formation of a “rosette.”
– Calcium deficiency leads to bending of the growth point, in some cases, it is retained, but the ovary falls off.
– Boron deficiency leads to the ovary drop.
Two methods can be used to feed plants: root feeding and foliar feeding. Root fertilizers are distributed in the soil near the plant roots to provide them with necessary elements. Foliar feeding involves dissolving fertilizer in water and spraying it onto plants using a specialized sprayer. This method quickly and effectively provides plants with essential nutrients.
Regardless of the chosen method of plant feeding, several tips should be followed:
– Consider the plants’ needs for fertilizers, taking into account the type of soil, type of crop, growth stage, and weather conditions.
– Adhere to recommendations for fertilizer application to the soil and use special tools for uniform distribution.
– Balance different types of fertilizers to provide the necessary amounts of macro- and micronutrients.
– Monitor plants and respond to any signs of fertilizer deficiency or excess.
– Consider environmental factors such as rain or showers and adjust the fertilization regime accordingly.
– Store products according to the producer’s recommendations and avoid contamination with unwanted substances.
