Summary
Rooted Leaf Nutrients has BOOSTED code GROWCAST to 30% discount for AUGUST ONLY! Nik is back to discuss possibly the most important soil fertilizer nutrient for cannabis: Potassium! Nik extrapolates on the incredible variety of biological processes that require potassium within our cannabis plants, and how it's a crucial building block when it comes to producing the compounds that we care about in the trichome head. Nik also expounds on the link between potassium expenditure and the plant's ability to take up water- which leads him to reiterate the importance of water uptake when it comes to hydrogen utilization during terpene and cannabinoid synthesis. Nik wraps up the show talking about balancing potassium, and how it's less important to continue to add potassium- and more important to make sure it's applied in the correct ratios.
