BAC PH Down 1L

Overview 

The importance of adjusting the pH is crucial. And it is that, at the time of nutrient absorption, the availability of these it depends directly on the existing pH in the medium. As an example, suffice it to say that at pH 7 plants can only absorb 50% of available iron and magnesium. Already pH 8 its absorption is totally null.

Therefore, the pH value that we must achieve in our nutrient solution would be that between values from 5.8 to 6.5, the ideal being a value of 6 so that most of the nutrients supplied are truly available for plants.

On the other hand, the addition of nitric acid supposes an extra dose of nitrogen; one of the macronutrients indispensable for plants throughout their entire life cycle. It is essential for the production of amino acids, enzymes, nucleic acids, chlorophyll and alkaloids. It contributes to the vegetative development of the plant and is the main responsible for the growth of leaves and stems, but must also be present in the last stages of maturation.
