Can I use the same nutrients for soil plan growing and hydroponic plant growing?
All hydroponic nutrients can be used soil crops. Hydroponic nutrient formulas are mineral-based and are instantly available to the plant in any growing medium. But, not all soil nutrients can be used for hydroponics because of the nutrient thickness and release speed of the formula’s nutrients. High performance hydroponic systems often have small parts and hoses that can clog easily by thicker formulas like Flora Nova. Often soil nutrients need micro-organisms and time to break down and become available to the plant. By eating the organic material, the organisms present in the soil process the soil nutrient into proper food for the plant. Organic nutrients can be used in a hydroponic system, but we recommend using mediums like coconut fiber or Ready-Gro to provide an environment for beneficial bacteria.
