- EXPLORE EFFECTS OF NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY IN PLANTS || Learn the 16 essential nutrients for plants, and be able to identify symptoms of nutrient deficiency. This kit also explores the differences between non-mineral, mineral, primary macronutrients, secondary macronutrients and micronutrients
- ENGAGING ACTIVITY || Using specially prepared nutrient solutions to deprive plants of one of seven specific vital nutrients, learners will create a controlled hydroponic setup to test the effects of individual macronutrient deficiencies on radish plants
- EXCELLENT FOR REMOTE LEARNING || Great for Distance Learning and home schooling - kit includes instruction manual, worksheets and enough materials for 3 complete set ups. Makes an exciting home science project!
- MATERIALS INCLUDED || Kit includes Calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, magnesium sulfate, potassium phosphate, sodium phosphate, sodium nitrate, magnesium chloride, sodium sulfate, calcium chloride, potassium chloride, micronutrient solution, a bag of vermiculite, plastic cups, absorbent wick pads and radish seeds
This kit allows you to examine the effects of nutrient deficiency on plants. Specially prepared nutrient solutions (included in the kit) will allow learners to deprive each plant of one of seven specific vital nutrients. Over time, they will be able to identify the effects, if any, of the nutrient deprivation through physical observation of the plant's growth. Kit contains enough materials for 3 complete set-ups.
Great for distance learning and home schooling - kit includes Teacher's (or Parent's) Instruction Manual, safety data sheets, student guide and worksheet copymasters.
