We know that plants require nutrients.

Question:

We know that plants require nutrients. If we supply these in excess, will it be beneficial to the plants? If yes, how/ If no, why?

Solution:

No, excess of nutrients should not be given because if we supply these nutrients in excess reduces the dry weight of the tissue by 10% and leads to toxicity. It also inhibits the uptake other elements. For example, Increased level of Manganese inhibits the uptake of Calcium, Iron etc.
