How to Address Micronutrient Deficiencies

In this webinar, John Kempf reviews micronutrient and trace mineral function and how to address deficiencies of these minerals. He discusses the accuracy of testing measures, applications of nutrients, preferred nutrient form, and effective management practices.

I'm listening to one of these every day since I found the channel, and my plants are noticeably happier already. Great info, thanks guys.

Another great post John and team! .. appreciate your willingness to bring understanding and practical real life examples.

This well researched information is priceless. Great teacher and speaker. Thank you JK!

SeaSalt has all of these micronutrients, you can make JMS (JADAM Microbial Solution) in 3 days basically free. 5 of gallons of clean or rain water, 3 potatoes with equal parts leaf mold. And suspend them both in 5 gallon paint strainers hanging center of the bucket this will create a natural bubbler and and 2 to 3 days at peak microbial activity you will have JMS which will have all of the micro nutrients that were spoken of today! Potatoes, water, dirt, three days, you’re done.

Great webinar Thanks a lot John

Great information! Thank you for sharing!!

John you have talked about using micronutrients which should be in reduced form does that means seperatinf sulphate part and then using the same

[@donready119]

Is the definition of redox correct? Mn2+ is oxidized, just less so than Mn3+. To be reduced, it would be Mn2- ?? S04 is reduced when dissolved.

[@ravim292]

I am from South India. If you add small quantities of trace minerals to your biggest plant, would you be getting a slurry that contains bioavailabe trace minerals for soil application. Anaerobic digestion takes place in the biggest plant. So the trace minerals would be in the reduced form. Your view, please. (violas plant)(Bio-gas plant)

[@lloydspahr7237]

John, you mentioned micro-nutrients can be sprayed on cover crops to distribute deep into soil profile. Should sap analysis be taken on the cover crop to identify deficiencies? In a cocktail cover crop should sap be taken on a certain plant or should samples be taken from multiple plants in the same sample?

[@AdvancingEcoAgriculture]

Hi Lloyd, thanks for these great questions. Sap analysis can likely be done on cover crops, but it really becomes a question of what your goals are for the cover area. Generally, the best option would be to focus on a key species or two from within the mix if you were to go that route (analysis is done on one species at a time). You may find Green Cover's Smart Mix Tool to be of interest when developing a cover crop cocktail. Additionally, our Customer Care team can advise you on treatment solutions! 😃 - The AEA Team

I do have a product that I take personally and Feed my plants with, It has LIVING REDOX Molecules in this product and is a Patented product.

[@johnnmartens3067]

When i do a foliar I always do a aged static compost extract and add my nutrients fish hydrolysate or liquid kelp or sea 90 I figure when you do the extract there’s humic acids and fulvics washing off the compost chelating some of the nutrients

[@hosoiarchives4858]

Hi, I see you sell Sea Crop, are those minerals in the reduced form? Thanks

[@Stilgar74]

I believe all their products are chelated in the reduced form

Can I remove the effect of hco3 in the irrigation water with the equivalent of soil applied elemental sulfur taking into account the molar mass of each? I have 50 cec high magnesium soil, with a pH of 7.2 and soil temperatures 25-12degC depending on the time of year. Almost all water comes from irrigation. I have started puting out 500kg/ha elemental sulphur before planting each crop.

[@jacklegminercanada3866]

Do you mean reduced from say potassium sulfate to potassium thiosulfate? I have potassium chloride that I cannot use, can I reduce that in solution to potassium sulphate? I'd have to knock of the chlorine and replace with sulfur? . Doesn't sound like something that could be done in the house, if even possible

[@motivatedtocomment]

Hope you can get this worked out

Could you please repeat here the author of the 6h free Academy course?

Yes, the author of this free course on redox is Dr. Olivier Husson. You can view the course at: www.academy.regen.ag/projects/redox-potential/

If mixing Manganese Sulfate with water soluble humic/fulvic acids or water soluble amino acids in water before applying, will that form chelates - or is it more complicated than that?

[@frankbertola3662]

My theory also. Have used fulvic extensively successfully with spraying trace elements in sulphate forms.

[@MrBob58o]

@@frankbertola3662 I have a bunch of sulfates and also Ful-Power from BioAg. I like the Ful-Power (liquid product) because the other "water soluble" fulvic acids products I've tried weren't all that soluble and clogged up my pump sprayer. I tried doing this with Iron Sulfate and it seemed to oxidize on the leaves and leave rust colored spots when dried.

[@frankbertola3662]

@@MrBob58o hi Bob. I'm in West Aust. I used fulvic with knock down (glyphosate) and cut rates to 250 ml hct v effective. The action of fulvic to my knowledge has the ability to take an element apart and having it's origins in lignin (lignite) I do believe it has properties which is creation in action a study all on its own.

You say we need to foliar apply a lot of micronutrients in reduced form to give plants the highest level of productivity. However, in nature there is no real foliar feeding. How do plants get all their nutrients properly in nature without the foliar applications? Or is the foliar spraying for 100 percent harnessing the full potential of a plant's production?

[@matthewkheyfets1309]

Also, is there a product that's all in one for micro nutrients because I seeon the website there is rebound for all the elements spoken about, but none that's an all in 1 type where it's simpler to apply. I also don't understand why something like a notill method can't give all the micronutrients plants need. Many people have gotten successful results, just curious is these lectures are for mass producing farms or also for home gardners.

[@matthewkheyfets1309]

And can autumn leaves provide all the nutrients necessary if used as a mulch/fertilizer?

15 grams of Himalayan pink salt in 5 gals compost tea. Diluted 100 to 500 to 1. I’ve been doing this for 3 years now. My brix content has doubled in a year. No bug problems, a weed hear and there. There is 84 trance minerals in pink salt. Soil drench or foliar spray.

[@normalusorasotutokstoras]

@@kicknadeadcat look up for "ormus" there is a way to extract all those sea minerals and you use it in your garden. That way you get rid of salt itself and you can use only these 80+ trace minerals without sodium hydroxide

[@JJ-vf1ix]

They got a product out now called "microgenics 0.75" that contains an all in one micronutrients

[@dougbutabi5085]

I would say the answer is greensand and organic growing practices and you have all trace minerals you need
