Welcome to the department where you can find all the fertilizers that restore essential elements to plants: NPK Base. What is NPK Base? It's very simple, it's the three main elements that are important for plants. In order :
- Nitrogen (N ) is the mineral element that is the most abundant in plant tissues. Indeed, it is a constituent of amino acids: molecules that can form proteins (these molecules are the basis of the constitution of plant cells, some enzymes and co-enzymes), some hormones or chlorophyll. Nitrogen is therefore a basic element of cells. The purpose of nitrogen nutrition is to provide the nitrogen necessary to ensure the multiplication of plant cells and therefore of plant tissues
- Phosphorus (P) is another basic NPK because it is involved in different reactions during photosynthesis. (It is a catalyst in the synthesis of sugars for example). It enters in the composition of ATP, molecule which provides to the plants the necessary energy to carry out the various chemical reactions of the metabolism. Phosphorus therefore plays an important role in the synthesis of energy molecules and their storage. Phosphorus also has many other benefits, more info in our page dedicated to phosphorus.
- Potassium (K) (from the Latin Kalium) is expressed as K2O oxide on fertilizer bottles. It is sometimes called potash. The nutritional requirements of potassium are quite high in plants. Potassium has an exchange and regulation function in the plant, but also an enzymatic function.
With these three elements we can talk about NPK Base, Culture Indoor offers you the best fertilizers with these nutrients: Platinium Nutrients, Biobizz, Plagron, Canna, Aptus...
The NPK Base, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, is essential for all types of crops: soil, coco, hydroponics, aeroponics...
