The soil is just a medium
#save_the_iraqi_people
The soil doesn't have any intrinsic nutritional value
yes it does
retard
It is a bearer of a nutrient solution
the soil itself is dead organic matter
You can literally grow crops on a toilet paper dipped in nutritional solvent
You ever heard of crops being grown hypotonically?
and where do you get those nutrients from for nutritional solvents
soil usually down the line
Dude take a botany class already
What is hypotonic cultivation?
soil serves as the bedrock for all nutrients in the ecological system
It's a medium
Not saying isn't an important medium
But it is not a prerequisite to growing anything
If another artifical medium can house nutrients and animal life, it's just as good
you still need the nutrients initially extracted from soil to grow plants in water based solutions
There two kinds of nutrients crops need
the nutrients you put in the water don't come from thin air
Macro and micro-nutrients
they are coming from the soil
Crops have been grown in water using just these nutrients
No you can sythesize them in the lab
Basicall Hydrogen, Oxygen and carbon are macronutrients
no you can't synthesize them from thin air
And there are a couple other micronutrients
There's a large list
You can literally synthesize all three micronutrients from thin air lol
complete retard
That analogy doesn't apply in this case
Like literally air has all these three elements
I get what you're tryna say
But yes, these nutrients are available in abundance from other sources
no they aren't
completely wrong
Lol
Bruh you need a botany class asap
