Substrate (rock wool, clay grains, cocopeat, etc.) contains no or hardly any nutrients. So all essential elements must be offered in the food solution. The minimum requirement for every modern A-B package is that it contains sufficient amounts of N (nitrogen), P (phosphorus), K (potassium), Mg (magnesium), Ca (calcium), S (sulfur), Fe (iron), Mn (manganese), Zn (zinc), B (boron), Cu (copper) and Mo (molybdenum). comprises. In addition, HY -PRO introduces some components that have so far been insufficiently estimated in terms of value in conventional hydroponics, or have simply been rejected as too expensive. Formulation and selective ion uptake: The most important thing here is the specific needs of the plant variety; Each variety shows a different requirement in each phase of life in terms of the content N, P, K, Mg, etc. The different stages of development of a plant therefore require an even more specific recipe than the differences in quality of the tap water delivered.

HY-PRO has analysed and mapped the different needs of 7 different crop breeds at different stages of development and has kept the middle between the highest and lowest concentration optima in its recipe. Selective ion uptake means that the plant can decide what it wants to absorb.

This decision-making ability decreases the more the conditions in the offered formulation deviate from the current requirement. HY -PRO adheres to the optimal recipe for all cultivated breeds as closely as possible, so that deficiency or excessive symptoms due to so-called antagonisms are excluded. An antagonism means that an excess of one ion makes it difficult to absorb another.

A temperature that is too low or an E.C. in the substrate that is too high can also lead to these phenomena. With conventional food solutions, plants will only be able to make optimal use of what is offered to them at a certain stage of their growth/flowering.

It would therefore be necessary to work with different formulations during 1 cycle of 1 variety. Because this is impossible, HY-PRO contains homeopathic boosters that stabilize the plant in such a way that its ability to selectively absorb ions is drastically increased.
