Description
Canna's range of elemental additives allows growers the opportunity to create their own feeds from scratch as well as modify existing products.
However, it is worth noting that although plants sometimes look like they have a specific nutrient deficiency, it is frequently a problem with the way the plant is fed or an environmental issue.
Trying to correct individual nutrient deficiencies can often create more problems than it solves and with this in mind, we suggest using these additives with extreme caution.

How to use
Choose the element you need from the options. The additives let you build your own feed or adjust an existing one.
Use them with care. A plant that looks short of one nutrient often has a problem with how it is being fed, or with its room, and correcting one element on its own can create more problems than it solves. Check the pH and EC of your feed first; a pH and EC meter will tell you. If in doubt, a complete base nutrient is the safer route.
Questions
My plant looks deficient. Should I add a single element?
Check the feeding and the room first. What looks like a deficiency is often a feeding or environment problem, and adding one element can make things worse. Use these with great care.
Which elements are available?
Nitrogen, phosphor, potassium, calcium, magnesium sulphate, iron chelate and a trace mix.
