Growers have often struggled with understanding where their crops stand with regards to optimal nutrition.
Optimal nutrition is often the difference between a bumper crop and a break even year.
Soil testing and plant tissue analysis are traditional ways for growers to attempt to understand how their plant is taking up needed nutrients and regulating its overall health.
Those techniques offer more objective information than growers have had in the past and are much better than a visual subjective analysis.
That being said, there’s a new technique in town. It’s been used in Europe for some time and has migrated to the States for use in high value crops.
It’s called plant SAP analysis and my guest on this episode, Scott Wall of New Age Laboratories, is performing the technique for growers around the county.
It reveals how and what the plant is taking up in terms of nutrients, in the present moment.
Instead of guessing on what might happen in between a soil test, a leaf tissue analysis and a potency test on your flower, you can see into the plant’s day to day nutrient uptake activity.
Listen to this episode to learn more about how SAP analysis can change the way you manage nutrition.
