Micronutrients and Marijuana plants

In this post we’ll focus on the group of micronutrients that marijuana plants need during their whole life cycle, emphasizing on their main functions and explaining how to resolve and prevent the appearing of deficiencies and/or excesses of these micro-elements.

 

Generally, if you use a substrate suitable for marijuana culture and a balanced fertilizer, your plants shouldn’t have any kind of excess or deficiency, although it’s always better to know about them to prevent further issues.

 

Micronutrients are those elements that cannabis plants need in small amounts when compared to macronutrients, which are needed in larger amounts. These elements are necessary for a correct development of the plant’s metabolism, since much of their vital functions couldn’t be performed without them.

 

Zinc deficiency and excess in marijuana plants

 

Zinc deficiency

Zinc deficiency

 

Zinc is a necessary element for cannabis plants because it directly interacts in the creation of the chlorophyll. It’s immediately related to the creation of auxins and growth hormones. It must be noticed that the zinc intake depends on the PH level of the substrate and the concentration of other nutrients. For example, a phosphorus excess affects the intake of zinc.

 

It’s absorbed by the plants in form of bivalent ion (Zn2+ ), being also easily absorbed from the epidermis and the branches. In soils with a very acid PH level, the roots can’t absorb Zinc and transfer it to the above-ground part of the plant, just as happens with substrates exposed to low temperatures and a constant humidity caused by rains.

 

Deficiency Detection/Solution:

 

A zinc deficiency is detected by observing the appearance of chlorosis on the youngest leaves of the plant. Small dots appear on the borders of the leaves, and the plants suffer a very slow development.

Abnormalities in the development of the leaves, which lengthen. Internodal distance reduction, the leaves tend to make rosettes.

To solve a Zinc deficiency we can wash the roots to relieve any type of nutrient lockout caused by another element. Then, use fast-assimilation fertilisers rich in macro and micro-elements.

If the deficiency is severe, spray zinc on the leaves for a greater assimilation by the plant.

Zinc excess causes a very rapid death to plants due to its high toxicity. Iron deficiency can also be caused by excess of zinc.

Solution to zinc excess: The solution to zinc excess is washing the roots with water and a flushing product, with stable PH. In this way, we clean the substrate so we can start a slight and complete fertilizing schedule with macro and micro-elements.

 

From the look it may be a zinc deficiency that it shown in the picture above

Hope u never get a zinc deficiency Gazza u will f,,ked then when you have to spray a zinc solution on your plants

Sorry just couldn't help myself

The health of beneficial soil microorganisms that are exposed to galvanized metal is another consideration. “There is no question zinc can kill some of the soil’s microbes and that others love it,” says Jeff Lowenfels, author of , and . “I am willing to let the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi take up excess zinc, feed the plants what they need, and hold the rest,” Lowenfels says. His research has convinced him that “any damage done to the soil food web [by excess zinc] is quickly corrected by it if the soil food web is a healthy one.”

Great read..

[Gazza2001au]

If i ever have a zinc lock out i will be sure to call u champ... besides arn't u the guy who needed to inject oxygen into his nutrient to get the plants growing?

[micmac]

I just read SE post on your other thread sorry to say I'm not gonna play this game with you anymore

Can't remember which number it was but that is exactly what is happening here

Goodbye good luck I hope u get all your issues sorted

Right so please name one person u know to have smoked vegetables grown in zing coated pots or grow beds? I'll wait your reply

 

zinc in tablet form goes into your belly not your lungs ffs when u burn the buds!

who is smoking zingy vegetables? must of missed something..
