Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are major types of hydro-organic nutrients that are helpful in the production cycle of growing plants. Hydro-organic growers call them the primary macro-nutrients that nevertheless must be supplemented, for complete and proper growth, by the secondary macro-nutrients calcium, magnesium and sulfur. Macro-nutrients ultimataely require the bolstering effects of trace elements, also known as micro-nutrients, such as copper, iron, manganese and sodium.

What are the basic nutrients?
Most foods contain a mix of nutrients, which are classified as either macro-nutrients, or micro-nutrients. The macro-nutrients are carbohydrates (including fiber), fats, protein, and water, which we need in relatively large amounts. Carbohydrates, fats, and protein provide the structural material of cells, as well as energy (calories). Micro-nutrients include vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and phytonutrients, including antioxidants and pigments, which we need in relatively small amounts compared to macro-nutrients.
