Easy Grow's

Gardeners have observed the benefits of adding organic matter to soil for thousands of years. Organic matter not only improves the structure of the soil, it feeds the microorganisms in the soil, which in turn feed the plants. As microorganisms in the soil degrade...

Using B-Vitamins at the Transplant Stage I’ve been growing in hydroponics for many years with great success. Hydroponic nutrient solutions provide all of the essential elements that plants need in water soluble form. So hydroponics is like creating the perfect soil....

Watch Green Planet Nutrients great feature on what factors maximise your yield.  

Phosphorus is essential to all life. In fact, you may think of phosphorus as the “energy element” because phosphate bonds hold and release the energy that drives all life on the planet. Phosphorus is one of the big three in plant nutrition (NPK), and lack of available phosphorus is often the limiting factor for plant growth. If a plant doesn’t receive adequate phosphorus, its energy needs can’t be fully met. Its new growth will be stunted, both at the roots and at the shoots. And as the phosphorus deficiency worsens, the plant will eventually shut down completely and die.

Diagnosing Phosphorus Imbalances in Hydroponics Back in 1995 I produced my first educational video on “Introduction to Hydroponics”. I barely knew what hydroponics was at the time! But after doing my homework and interviewing NASA scientists, agriculture teachers,...
