We talked about the macro, secondary, and micronutrients in a previous episode. But, how do you tell if your plant is deficient or has too much of any one nutrient?

Different nutrient deficiencies or toxicities are expressed in the plant in different ways. And it’s important to rule out other possible reasons for your plants symptoms before you start adding additional nutrients because you may do more harm than good. Too much of a good thing can also cause too little of another in the case of plant nutrients.

So, how do you sort all of this out?? Join Karin as she talks about indicators of plant nutrient shortages and abundances and how to fix them.
