Detailed explanation-1: -Soil is a major source of nutrients needed by plants for growth. The three main nutrients are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). Together they make up the trio known as NPK. Other important nutrients are calcium, magnesium and sulfur.
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants have specific needs-light, air, water, nutrients, and space-to survive and reproduce. Almost all plants need these five things to survive: Light.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mineral nutrients come from the soil. These nutrients are absorbed by the plants roots when uptaking water. Mineral nutrients are broken up into macronutrients and micronutrients. The most important primary macronutrients for plants are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K).
