                                Globally, commercial growers and home gardeners have long understood that water alone is not enough for plants to thrive. The solution lies in providing balanced sustenance, and the foundation of this nourishment is what is a base nutrient. A base nutrient system serves as the main source of food for plants, supplying the fundamental macro and micronutrients needed for healthy growth throughout their entire lifecycle.
