Red Plants, Iron Dependant???
|| "RedForeman ©®" wrote in message
||| I've seen/read/heard or guessed, that most red plants, almost ||| require loads of Iron in the water... ||| true or false? || The answer would be false, their iron content is the same as green || plants. || "Eat your reds"..........hehe. || || Color has a few parameters that influence it. Our preception of color || is part of it also. Generally high traces/PO4/CO2 and low NO3 gives || the best reds. So, it's entirely possible that my 6700k bulbs are just bring out less reds, than say, a 3500k bulb? In my eyes, I like a bulb closer to 3500-4200k, it's bluer, greener, and redder than the 6700k, and THAT is my perception. || But do red plants need more iron than green plants? || Nope. || || Regards, || Tom Barr Thanks as usual... :-) -- | RedForeman ©® fabricator and creator of the ratbike streetfighter!!! | ========================== | 2003 TRX450ES | 1992 TRX-350 XX (For Sale) | '98 Tacoma Ext Cab 4X4 Lifted.... | ========================== | ø¤°`°¤ø,¸¸¸,ø¤°`°¤ø,¸¸¸,ø¤°`°¤ø,¸¸,ø¤°`°¤ø,¸¸¸,ø¤° `°¤ø,¸¸,ø¤°`°¤ø | ((((º`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸.
