Hydroponic Nutrient FAQ's
There is much conjecture about the nature of hydroponic nutrients and their safety in comparison to ‘natural’ or ‘organic’ soil. See this article for detailed info.
The artical concludes that:
a) Hydroponic nutrients are derived from the same base materials that conventional soil based nutrients are made
b) There is no evidence to support that plants grown with hydroponic mineral salts are detrimental to human health in any way. This evidence is based on multi-decades of analysis and use worldwide.
All plants need fertilizer to grow. In traditional gardening plants receive nutrient from the soil which is enriched with minerals and organic additives which may include manure & compost. These soil additives can be very effective, but as with many ‘organic’ products, there is the potential for large disparity in the actual contents.
Nutients can be categorized as follows:
1) Macronutrients. Plants need these in large amounts. This includes: Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oyxgen, Phosphorus, Calcium.
2) Micronutrinets. Plats need these in small amounts>
This includes: Zinc, copper, iron, manganese, boron, cholorine, nickel, molybdenum, nickel.
Standard hydroponic nutrients are derived from mineral salts. Hydroponic nutrients are simply plant nutrients that are designed for use in a hydroponic system. Plants require 16 elements to grow. Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen are already available in the air and water that they are receiving.

Powdered Hydroponic Nutrients Explained
We’ve trialed dozens of nutrients and found the best results from Superior Blend A&B. This section provides a guide on how to use these simple and extremely effective nutrients.
Buying powdered hydroponic nutrients instead of pre-mixed liquid nutrients can easily save you between 5 to 10 times the cost and sometimes with better results! Most hydroponic nutrient companies are simply charging you a massive premium for liquid nutrient. It’s the biggest trick going in the hydroponic game. When you buy hydroponic nutrient in powder form your buying the same mixture of mineral salts that went into the liquid nutrient, just at a much better price, and with reduced shipping costs. Why ship water? Doesn’t make sense.
Nutrient Basics:
Plants need large amounts of 3 macro-nutrients: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K). The NPK numbers you see on a manure or fertilizer bag (like 30-10-30) are simply telling you at what ratio these three macro-nutrients are mixed in that bag of fertilizer. Hydroponic nutrients contain these nutrients as well as all the other trace nutrients typically found in good quality soil. The nutrients are in a readily absorbed form, delivered right to the roots. That’s why hydroponic growing works so well.
Plants also need micro-nutrients (minute traces of other elements) in order to thrive, just like you do. The nutrient solutions you buy for your hydroponic garden are different from ordinary plant fertilizers. They include all the trace elements such as magnesium, iron, boron, manganese, zinc, molybdenum, copper, cobalt, chlorine, selenium and silicon.
Why Hydroponic?
Plants don’t need soil to grow, they need the nutrients contained in the soil! By simply adding plant food to the water we can grow plants in inert growing medium like coco peat, hydroton or perlite to provide the most optimal conditions for incredible yields. In a soil-based garden, a plant wastes alot of energy developing root systems in search of nutrient and water. With hydroponics, nutrient is delivered straight to the root in all the right quantities at the right times allowing the plant to reach it’s full genetic potential. The root systems of hydroponic plants are much smaller, so you can plant them closer together and harvest better yield in less space.
Why is it in 2 parts?
Hydroponic nutrients are split so that the phosphorus component (Part A) and the calcium component (Part B) are seperated. This is to inhibit nutrient ‘lock-out’ which can occur when these 2 parts react with eachother. The 2 parts are split as follows:
Superior Blend Part A:
-Phosphorus, Potassium, Sulphur, Magnesium, Boron, Copper, Molybdenum, Manganese, Zinc
Superior Blend Part B:
-Calcium, Iron
Is it Healthy?
Yes! Growing hydroponically is perfectly natural & healthy. Hydroponic nutrients are made form mineral salts. Instead of the plant searching for these same 17 nutrients and elements within the soil, we simply provide them directly to the roots enabling the plant to achieve it’s full genetic potential. This means stronger plants, faster growth, larger yields and yes, more nutrient dense food!
After just 1 week of using your easy to mix solution my lettuce have increased in size and health, Thank you for the speedy delivery also.
Easy purchase,good delivery time
Have continued to upgrade my system, have 12 towers now. Great savings always offered by Mer Stacky and most importantly of all a fantastic product.
Get great joy from my hydroponic garden ding.
Thanks
