Trace elements are usually depleted by use, oxidation, and precipitation. The last two processes are faster than with other trace elements. This allows you to regularly restore trace elements. Flourish Trace ™ can be used alone or in conjunction with Flourish®.
The best results are obtained with both. Flourish Trace ™ is safe for invertebrates such as shrimp.
Signs of element deficiencies in plants:
Boron: Death of stem and root apical meristem, leaves are twisted, young tissues are most affected
Cobalt: Used for nitrogen fixation, as well as signs of nitrogen deficiency (stunted growth)
Copper: young leaves are dark green, twisted, wilted, the tip remains alive
Manganese: Chlorosis of young leaves, with the smallest veins remaining green, necrosis between the veins
Molybdenum: Chlorosis, twisting, death of young leaves
Zinc: reduced leaf size, shortened internodes, chlorosis, spotted leaves, older leaves most affected <
Nickel: no germination or seed formation needed to absorb iron
Usage
Use 1 drop (5 ml) for every 80 L (20 US gal) twice a week. When used in conjunction with Flourish, use Flourish and Flourish Trace on separate days.
