Different plant species have varying nutrient requirements. Current urban farming practices employ a generic hydroponic nutrient solution that is suitable for most plant types, along with a basic sensing system that only measures the total ion content in the solution. This approach often leads to nutrient deficiency or overloading, necessitating consistent monitoring.
A targeted hydroponic nutrient solution reduces the need for periodic nutrient adjustments. RP has analysed the nutrient consumption patterns of common Asian crops during their growth periods and formulated nutrient recipes to ensure the optimal growth for specific crop types. This reduces common issues related to imbalanced nutrients and wastage of nutrients. Nutrient recipes have been developed for crops such as Mizuna, Kale, Lettuce, Mustard, Kalian, and Caixin.
The nutrient recipes are specific to individual crop types, ensuring the best growth for each crop, such as lettuce or kale.
