ISA And TNLA CEUs
with Matt Campbell, ArborJet
This session explores the vital connection between soil moisture chemistry and plant health. Participants will learn how water quality, salinity, and nutrient availability in the soil solution influence plant physiology, root development, and overall growth.
Key Takeaways:
-
Water Quality Impacts Nutrient Uptake – pH, salinity, and dissolved ions in irrigation water directly affect a plant’s ability to absorb essential nutrients.
-
Soil Chemistry Drives Root Behavior – Imbalances in soil moisture or chemical composition can alter root growth patterns and trigger stress responses.
-
Monitoring Matters – Regular testing of soil and water chemistry helps prevent issues like nutrient lockout, toxicity, or stunted plant development.
