Deficiency symptoms on plantsA decolouration of plant leaves is ascribed to insufficient nutrition and lack of trace minerals. However, exactly observe other causes of damage also. |
Lack of potassium (K)Potassium is important for cell division and absorption of other nutrients like calcium and nitrogen. Potassium is also responsible for water balance of plants. |
Lack of calcium (Ca)Calcium is important for plants because of its ability to provide a healthy soil and to build cell walls. |
Lack of phosphorus (P)Like nitrogen phosphorus is essential for the protein structure and stimulates the development of blossoms, fruits and seeds. |
Lack of trace elementsPlants only need few trace elements but these are as important as vitamins are for humans. A lack may bring about deficiency symptoms and diseases. |
Lack of nitrogen (N)Nitrogen is the main nutrient of plants, builds plant protein and is the most important part of chlorophyll. |
