- Hoagland Solution from Plant Physiology and Development
-
A nutrient solution for plant growth, originally formulated by Dennis R. Hoagland.
-
This formulation is called a modified Hoagland solution, named after Dennis R. Hoagland, a scientist who did pioneering work on hydroponics in the 1930s. A modified Hoagland solution contains all known mineral elements needed for rapid plant growth. The concentrations of these elements are set at the highest possible concentrations without producing toxicity symptoms or salinity stress, and thus may be several orders of magnitude higher than those found in the soil around plant roots. For example, whereas phosphorus is present in the soil solution at concentrations normally less than 0.06 μg g–1 or 2 μM, the modified Hoagland solution calls for 62 μg g–1 or 2 mM. Such high initial concentrations permit plants to be grown in a medium for extended periods without replenishment of the nutrient, but they may injure young plants. Therefore, many researchers dilute their nutrient solutions several-fold and replenish them frequently to minimize fluctuations of nutrient concentration in the medium and in the plants.
