Potassium (K) is an essential nutrient for plants and is classified as a primary macronutrient, along with nitrogen and phosphorus. It plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, growth, and development of plants. Potassium is required in relatively large quantities by plants and is involved in several key functions. Here’s a detailed overview of […]

Plants require a total of 16 nutrients to grow, develop, reproduce and remain healthy. Three of these nutrients – nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) – are required in relatively large amounts. These are known as macronutrients. Existing in a delicate balance with each other, the macronutrients each have a big role to play […]
