Extract

Much work has been done with regard to the elements necessary for plants, their function in the plant, methods of absorption, amounts necessary, nutrient solutions, etc. The following is particularly, concerned with nutrient solutions, including their composition, concentration, methods of application, and the general methods of dealing with sand and water cultures. The work is confined mainly to a study of the major elements.
