The required nutrients which otherwise work as essential foods for the plants are direct mixed in the water stored in a water reservoir and are directly fed to the roots of plants through water which remain in circulation in a closed loop system through water pump.
Macro (Primary) Nutrients:
Macro (Primary) Nutrients:
The primary nutrients, also called as macro nutrients, which are consumed by plants forming the major proportion are N (Nitrogen), P (Phosphorous) and K (Potassium). These are necessary for growth of roots, formation of sugar, chlorophyl, Starch and also for producing fruits.
Secondary Nutrients:
The nutrients which are consumed by plants in smaller quantities are Ca (Calcium), S (Sulphur), Magnesium (Mg.) and Zinc (Zn). These mixed with Primary nutrients are consumed by plants for cell formation, respiration and metabolism.
Micro-nutrients:
The 3rd category of nutrients which are consumed in tiny small quantities by plants are called Micro nutrients. These are Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn) and Molybdenum (Mo)
