Fertilisers for Hydroponic Growing

When we talk about hydroponic fertilisers, we're referring to a mineral fertiliser that contains all the nutrients and micro-elements necessary for crop development. There are different types of fertiliser, although in this category you'll mainly find base fertilisers and additives compatible with hydroponic irrigation systems. These types of nutrients can be grouped within the category of mineral fertilisers for cannabis.

Within hydroponic systems we can find distinctions between systems that don't use substrates, which we'll call pure systems, and others that do use substrates such as rockwool or coco. There's also another large group of fertilisers that we can categorise as organic fertiliser for cannabis, but with certain characteristics different from hydroponic fertilisers that give them certain advantages and disadvantages which you can explore in that section. If you're interested in this type of fertiliser, you might also be interested in some other solid options that can be mixed with coco, such as Bat Guano for growth.  

FERTILISER FOR HYDROPONIC CROPS

Fertilisers for hydroponic crops have an undeniable advantage, which is that they allow you to maintain greater control over plant nutrition due to their rapid availability. In this way, you can adapt the amount of nutrients you provide to your plants throughout the entire cycle to guarantee a final product of maximum quality.

We can also distinguish between recirculating systems and so-called solution loss systems. In the latter, the set of nutrients is supplied constantly to a substrate that retains the solutions. In the former case, the recirculating system, the same solution, as its name suggests, recirculates through the irrigation cycle, coming into contact with the plant's roots. One of the major differences that hydroponic fertilisers have is that they can remain in the nutrient solution for several days without spoiling the mixture, unlike what happens, for example, with solid cannabis fertilisers.

Regarding pH and its importance, in a hydroponic system you should know that nutrients will be absorbed in greater proportion when the pH of the root zone is as close as possible to 6, and ranging between values of 5.5 and 7.
