Test results

PLANT NUTRITION+ capsules effect has been tested on a number of different waterplants with different growth patterns. In one series of tests (with AquaCare), the substrate of one set of aquaria was enriched with PLANT NUTRTION+ capsules, while the other set had a substrate of only gravel. All plant species in the test displayed a positive growth response to PLANT NUTRTION+ capsules when compared with plants with substrates of just gravel.

The nutrition release from capsules was recorded week by week. The results showed a constant release. Parallel plant growth observations showed fertilizer capsules to have a positive effect on plant growth and that the fertilizer concentrate has no harmful effect around the roots. The capsules had neither a positive nor a negative effect on the foreground plant Hemianthus micranthenoides. This is due to the plant only absorbing nutrition from water and not through the roots.
