What is needed for pea plants to grow?

Answer 1

Photosynthesis requires: Carbon dioxide (CO2), Hydrogen and Oxygen (in the form of water H2O), these are required to produce glucose, fructose (and sucrose). Sunlight + CO2 + H2O = C6H12O6 + O2

Normal growth (growing processes) require the following "macronutrients" - these are the building blocks of plant growth:

N - Nitrogen (NO3 or NH4)

P - Phosphorus (PO4)

K - Potassium (potassium salts)

S - Sulfur (SO4)

Ca - Calcium (calcium nitrate)

Normal growth (metabolic processes) require the following "micronutrients" - these are used to synthesis protiens, vitamins and enzymes that are required to carry out other metabolic functions:

Mg - Magnesium

Fe - Iron

Cu - Copper

Zn - Zinc

Mn - Manganese

Mo - Molybdenum

B - Boron

Si - Silica

Answer 2

Hi! I am currently doing a research project on what specific nutrients are needed to promote plant growth. Since the pea plant contains a bacteria which can fix nitrogen most of it's nutrients are used from that to grow. However, you will need to use the correct fertilizer for overall plant growth using three nutrients: potassium, phosphate, and nitrogen. Nitrogen plays a big role in the pea plants overall roots and plant growth but the other two help aid in the structure of the pea plant. The potassium fertilizers help with the immune system of the plant and the phosphate fertilizers help stimulate the roots. Hope this helped! Go to a local greenhouse and get help from from one of the staff, they're a really big help! They can also help with specific fertilizers you need for your plant!

Answer 3

carbondioxide,water,sun

The three main nutrients are nitrogen(N), phosphorus(P), and potassium(K)

Answer 4

The plant needs water, sunlight, and dirt or soil.

Answer 5

what nutrients do plants need for optinal growth

Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphates are the main requirements along with a range of trace elements.

Answer 6

soil sun and water and nutrients

Answer 7

water, soil, pea, solar energy.
