About this episode
Welcome to Hydroponics Daily, where today we dive into the controversial world of growth regulators in hydroponics. Discover the role of these chemicals in limiting crop height, a crucial concern for indoor growers facing spatial restrictions. However, with their unauthorized use and potential health risks, including carcinogenic properties, the discussion takes a serious turn. Prohibited in the EU for food crops due to possible human harm, growth regulators also impact crop quality, affecting taste, shape, and aroma. Yet, hope remains with innovative techniques like partial root zone drying and beneficial microbes, offering safer alternatives for growth management. Engage with us as we explore these pressing issues and share your thoughts on the use of growth regulators in horticulture. 🇬🇧 https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/ 🇺🇸 https://goldleaffertilizer.com/
