The Nutrient Solution: Calculation and formulation of nutrient solution in soil-less culture / PH / EC / Hydroponics - Aquaponics - Bioponics - NFT

By omar guernine

About the book "The nutrient solution" The complementary guide to all the books of hydroponics and soilless cultivation. Soil-less cultivation is cultivation in a totally or partially reconstituted environment isolated from the soil, where the physico-chemical conditions are different from natural soil. It involves growing on supports and substrates. The choice of substrate depends on the crop, availability, climate... There are substrates of industrial origin (Rockwool, Polystyrene shavings). Mineral (Perlite, Vermiculite...) and organic (Coconut fiber, Peat...). There are several types of soilless culture, on fertile substrate (biodynamics), on inert substrate (hydroponics, aeroponics and aquaponics...), and other systems that use no substrate, where the roots of the cultivated plants are in direct contact with the nutrient solution (culture in flooded basins, NFT culture, aeroponics and ultraponics). In all these soilless cultivation systems, the use of nutrient solutions is necessary, as this is the source of plant nutrition, so the nutrient solution is the key to success in this type of cultivation. For best production, it is necessary to understand and control all the parameters (calculation and formulation of the nutrient solution, choice of fertilizers to be used, PH, EC, CO2 supply....).
