  2. Potassium cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_cycle

    The most abundant ion in plant cells is the potassium ion. [2] Plants take up potassium for plant growth and function. A portion of potassium uptake in plants can be attributed to weathering of primary minerals, but plants can also ‘pump’ potassium from deeper soil layers to increase levels of surface K. [2] Potassium stored in plant matter can be returned to the soil during decomposition ...

  3. Plant nutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrition

    Plants take up essential elements from the soil through their roots and from the air through their leaves. Nutrient uptake in the soil is achieved by cation exchange, wherein root hairs pump hydrogen ions (H +) into the soil through proton pumps. These hydrogen ions displace cations attached to negatively charged soil particles so that the ...

  4. Plant nutrients in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrients_in_soil

    Nutrients in the soil are taken up by the plant through its roots, and in particular its root hairs.To be taken up by a plant, a nutrient element must be located near the root surface; however, the supply of nutrients in contact with the root is rapidly depleted within a distance of ca. 2 mm. [14] There are three basic mechanisms whereby nutrient ions dissolved in the soil solution are brought ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potash

    Potash (/ ˈ p ɒ t æ ʃ / POT-ash) includes various mined and manufactured salts that contain potassium in water-soluble form. [1] The name derives from pot ash, plant ashes or wood ash soaked in water in a pot, the primary means of manufacturing potash before the Industrial Era. The word potassium is derived from potash.

  7. Agrominerals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agrominerals

    One of the major sources for chemical fertilizers is potash ore. [2] The other concern with the potash ore is the supply is finite and is running out, hence the increase in pricing. [1] Potash is one of the major sources for potassium and phosphorus and one of the original agrominerals. [2]

  9. Potassium deficiency (plants) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_deficiency_(plants)

    Potassium deficiency, also known as potash deficiency, is a plant disorder that is most common on light, sandy soils, because potassium ions (K +) are highly soluble and will easily leach from soils without colloids. [1] Potassium deficiency is also common in chalky or peaty soils with a low clay content.
