Teaming With Nutrients
If you really want to get a sense of how little we know about how plants use fertilizers—and I count myself in this league—you should read Lowenfels’ latest book, Teaming With Nutrients, which gets deep into the weeds, so to speak, of the microscopic architecture of plants and the biochemical processes at play . . . Suffice to say, Lowenfels is a man who knows his anions.
