#47 Plant's mineral requirements and fertilisers. Plant is in need for mineral ions to control chemical activities, grow, and produce materials. The most important minerals are Magnesium ions and Nitrates. Plants need minerals for healthy growth.
The minerals and water become building blocks that the plant uses during photosynthesis to generate food. Plants use both macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients that plants need in order to make their own food include phosphorous, potassium, nitrogen, sulfur, magnesium and calcium. These are the larger minerals that tend to get leached from the soil first. Micronutrients are still essential for photosynthesis, but plants need them in smaller amounts.
