🧪PH vs EH, Nutrient Uptake, and Hydrogen, with Nik from Rooted Leaf

Nik from Rooted Leaf Nutrients (use code GROWCAST) is back on the show to continue our nutrient deep dive series! This time we take a step away from soil fertilizer elements and instead discuss PH, EH, and nutrient uptake. Nik talks about what PH is (percentage hydrogen) and why the amount of hydrogen can be used to deduce how available nutrients will be in the solution. Nik talks about the donation of hydrogen atoms and how chelation works inside a solution- highlighting that these availability processes take place totally independently of each other. This leads to conversation about EH, and Nik talks about the redox cycle as well as how oxygenation plays a role in plant health. Nik ties it all together back to photosynthesis and nutrient availability as a whole, and emphasizes how PH is NOT the only determining factor in nutrient availability, just one among other factors that may even be more important in certain scenarios...

I'm a simple man. I see Nik's name and I click! Thanks Jordan for featuring great guests!!

A good way to approach the concept of pH is that it expresses the ratio between H+ and OH- in solution. pH 7 = same amount of each ion pH 6 = 10 times more H+ than OH- pH 8 = 10 times less H+ than OH- 😉

Nik is a pretty amazing…He’s like a crystal ball that I can stare into for knowledge

[@jasonseaward8506]

As a more visual learner, i wish Nik's episodes were more visual with like a whiteboard or something that he could draw some examples etc, sorta like a classroom lol. I sometimes find it hard to wrap my mind around the extremely complex topics he hits us with. Id love some more info from him BC i know hes amazingly smart!!!!

fkn love niks episodes. i get hyped. i got my bots scanning for any video or podcast hes in.. dudes next level

[@StaticSift]

also was listening to the copy left stuff.. man im looking into that.. genius idea.. my grease stain finally finished testing and washing, its a banger.. pheno 1 washed at 3.5%, 2 washed at 5%, 3 and 4 both teetered at 3-3.5. Cant wait to hunt more.. available by request to the homies kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2bJqXSDlsmLisksi=MeRkzM9Fi5JSXjlr

Duuuuude. Finally, ive been waiting for todays drop. Blaze on 🔥🤙🔥🤙

[@bradhude2446]

With rooted leaf nutrients. Do I have to water to run off , like when growing with salts. Runoff or no runoff ?

[@theloveofgrowing9519]

nik is amazing, he knows everything lol

[@Eric-dz1we]

What I think, maybe after 3 more time listening. Good stuff. Love the podcast

[@TheGrowBros]
