Streamlining Nutrient Recipes with Automation: A Game-Changer for Growers

    

Just like the human body requires different nutrients at various stages of life, plants too need specific nutrients at different phases of their growth. For flowering plants, including cannabis, this need is particularly precise due to their cyclical biological processes. Unlike humans, whose nutritional needs remain relatively constant, plants require carefully timed nutrient schedules to thrive. 

Understanding the specific stage of your plant's growth cycle is crucial. The right nutrients at the right time can significantly impact the quality of your harvest, transforming a good yield into a great one.

Stage Specific Nutrients 

Cannabis plants, beyond their need for carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen from air and water, demand a balanced mix of macronutrients and micronutrients. These needs vary throughout their growth stages. During the vegetative stage, cannabis requires higher levels of nitrogen. In the flowering phase, increased phosphorus and potassium levels are essential. 

Nutrient manufacturers are experts in creating optimal nutrient ratios for each growth stage of cannabis. They offer detailed feeding charts to ensure your plants get exactly what they need, promoting optimal health and vigor. 

 

Simplifying with Automation 

Automation technology such as Growlink’s software platform, allows growers to implement these pre-set or custom nutrient recipes seamlessly in order to schedule and precisely dose nutrients according to your plant’s needs. 

These systems can dose nutrients accurately down to the last milliliter per gallon, offering options for pH and EC targeting, and allowing manual adjustments to recipe volumes. Whether you use direct injection or batch tanks, automation maintains the correct nutrient ratios based on the required volume.  Screenshot 2024-08-01 at 12.32.14 PM

 

Fine-Tuning and Saving Recipes 

Growlink’s software enables you to save and reuse recipes easily. With the ability to switch recipes at the click of a button, growers can ensure their plants receive the right nutrients at the right time. This results in healthier plants, higher yields, and more sustainable farming practices. Embracing these advanced tools is essential for cultivators to remain competitive and achieve long-term success in the industry.

Finding The Best Solution 

Automation has enabled cultivators to maximize the genetic potential of their plants, thanks to superior nutrient delivery systems. It also creates a significant savings on time and labor, as hand-mixing is no longer needed.  

However, the high cost and logistical challenges of nutrient delivery systems have been barriers for many cultivators. These systems are often bulky, expensive, and require professional installation.  
 
However, now there is a solution... 

 

Introducing Growlink’s NDK: Nutrient Delivery Kit 

Growlink's Nutrient Delivery Kit (NDK) addresses these issues with a DIY built nutrient delivery system that saves significant costs compared to fully pre-assembled fertigation systems. The NDK ships with all the necessary components and parts along with a straightforward installation manual, therefore allowing growers to set up their system without the need for an installation team, providing affordability and autonomy.
