  1. Definitely the most helpful video I've seen in regards to nutrients. Saving this one for reference! So here's a return favor since you questioned the pronunciation of molybdenum. (you mostly had it right. lol)

    mol•YB•de•NUM – you enunciate on the second and fourth syllables. Sounds like mo-LIB-den-UM.

  2. I am a hydroponic farmer and i usually find the recepie for npk and macro nutrients but never for micro. Why is that? What is the ideal method to decide the quantity micro in a plant?

  3. Very nicely explained starting from basics. Next question is how to (detailed step by step procedure) add each of fertilizers and micro nutrients to the soil or water (hydroponics) ? Which all are the good testing instruments available in market place to test presence (means absence) of each one of it.

  4. Very few fertilizer products have BORON because it can be toxic if over used. In my experience, its essential for some vegetables such as beet root. A quick remedy is to add 2 tablespoons of Mule Team Borax to hot water to dissolve and add to a sprinkling can and lightly spread the water across 100 sq ft of garden to correct a minor deficiency.. I use a lot of fish/kelp to add micro-nutrients to the soil.
