An indoor hydroponic device uses cyanobacteria as fertilizer, examining the media composition and nutrient delivery to this hydroponic unit. Due to the use of this fertilizer and the hydroponic setup, the device requires minimal space and maintenance. The device focuses on a) optimizing cyanobacteria and plant growth, b) increasing the efficacy of cyanobacteria as fertilizer, and c) evaluating and enhancing the user's experience with the hydroponic unit.

The present invention relates to an organic nutrient-based dissolution accelerator for potassium sulfate and a preparation method therefor and the use thereof. The organic nutrient-based dissolution accelerator for potassium sulfate of the present invention consists of an organic acid mixture solution, tyrosine, leucine, threonine, alcohol amine, and the like. The organic nutrient-based dissolution accelerator for potassium sulfate of the present invention can not only substantially improve the dissolution speed of potassium sulfate by 6-120 times, but also provides organic nutrition for crops to achieve a synergy with inorganic nutrition to further improve the nutritional efficiency of potassium and sulfur elements.

There is provided herein a process for the compaction of Polyhalite, comprising: mixing a feed of polyhalite with an inorganic binder in a mixer to yield a mixture; compacting said mixture in a compactor to yield masses; crushing said masses in a crusher to yield particles; and screening said particles in a screener to yield particles in three different sizes: oversized fine particles which undergo a second crushing process and are retuned to said screener for screening, undersized fine particles which are transferred to said mixer for further mixing and compacting, and desired size fine particles which are transferred to a polish screener for glazing and oiling.

A granular cohered MOP fertilizer having one or more micronutrients, and one or more binding ingredients. The fertilizer is prepared by compacting MOP feed material with a source of zinc and one or more optional binders to form a cohered MOP composition. The cohered MOP composition is then further processed, such as by crushing and sizing, to form a cohered granular MOP product containing a source of zinc. The process yields a fertilizer product containing micronutrients with superior elemental and granule size distribution without compromising handling or storage qualities.

A concentrated composition for plant nutrition. The composition includes a polymeric stabilizing agent having a high number of polar hydrophilic groups, such as microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), comprising calcium ions, sulfate ions and salts of other elements for plant nutrition. The concentration of calcium ions and sulfate ions and other essential elements exceeds the concentration corresponding to the normal solubility of calcium sulfate and other insoluble salts in water. The proportion of the polymeric stabilizing agent having a high number of polar hydrophilic groups is within a range of 1% and 99% w/w of the suspension. The availability of the nutrient elements is assured within a pH range of 1 to 13.
