In this episode of Hydroponics Daily, Dr. Russell Sharp delves into the world of phosphites, exploring their unique properties and significance in hydroponic systems. Often confused with phosphates, phosphites play a crucial role in promoting extensive root systems, particularly in crops like potatoes. While some claims suggest additional pest control benefits, the primary strength of phosphites lies in their ability to stimulate root growth effectively.
Dr. Sharp also addresses the controversial aspects of phosphite usage, from EU bans to misconceptions about their role as a phosphorus source. The episode provides valuable insights into different biostimulants available for root development, emphasizing alternatives like amino acids and humic acids for those seeking organic options.
