Thus, plant nutrition is <strong>effective and sustainable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organo-mineral fertilizers (with EDTA chelates) are of natural origin, coming from <strong>composting, bone meal, guano, etc<\/strong>. To achieve a perfect balance between micro and macro nutrients, <strong>chelating agents are added<\/strong>. <strong>EDTA <\/strong>is a chelate capable of <strong>introducing certain nutrients to the plant<\/strong>.

It&#8217;s <strong>important to stop applying fertilizers<\/strong> about <strong>15 to 21 days before harvest<\/strong>. Moreover, if your plants are over-fertilized, the excess nutrients could delay plant development and, therefore, its final maturation. The drying process may <strong>struggle to eliminate excess chlorophyll<\/strong>, potentially leaving an <strong>undesirable taste<\/strong> in your herb. Thus, it&#8217;s crucial to follow the <strong>manufacturer&#8217;s instructions<\/strong>, possibly their cultivation table, and the recommendations of your grow shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To facilitate the choice of your fertilizer, several associations have been created to <strong>certify and label fertilizers<\/strong>. These institutions ensure that the general public and agricultural sector professionals can be guaranteed a product that can, for example, be integrated into an <strong>organic cultivation process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_fertilizers_when_being_vegan\"><\/span>Using fertilizers when being vegan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, a new cultivation system, <strong>vegan cultivation, has emerged<\/strong>. This bio-vegetal technique involves growing while <strong>avoiding all artificial chemicals<\/strong>, genetically <strong>modified organisms<\/strong>, <strong>animal manures<\/strong>, and <strong>animal remains<\/strong> from slaughterhouses (blood meal, feather meal, bone dust). Therefore, it&#8217;s necessary to ensure the composition of the products or verify that they have a vegan label.
