    1:05 why are Calcium, Magnesium and Sulfur micronutrients, even if they are in total more than phosphorus? For example there is around 120mg/l calcium included in the average nutrient solution, but only 30 mg/l phosphorus. So the micro is 4x the amount of the macros?
    I think Ca-Mg-S are called secondary nutrients and the micros are iron, manganese, boron, molybdenum, copper, zink, …
