Concentrated source of nitrogen, one of the most important plant nutrients, required for
growth and long-term health, and utilized primarily in the production of nucleic acids and
proteins, accounting for up to 2% of plant tissue dry weight.
Nitrogen is present as nitrate, a form appropriate for use in aquaria (ammonium can
revert to toxic ammonia in aquaria with pH over 7.0; urea is a source of ammonia).
Contains Kelp extract, which provides natural phytohormones found to encourage growth
and flowering.
Formulated utilizing extensive research on aquatic plant nutrient requirements
Nitrogen is required by plants in the largest amounts of the three major (macro) nutrients: nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Nitrogen is a part of all living cells and is a requisite of the metabolic processes in which proteins, amino acids, coenzymes, and nucleic acids are created. It is an integral part of chlorophyll manufacture through photosynthesis, the process in which light energy is utilized to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates, which is in turn used to provide the energy for growth and development.
