Guys what do you think about zinc level in nutrients?

I didn't read the article. I clicked the link for the study and got the PDF. Then I fed that to Gemini and asked it for a summary. The study basically says too little and too much is bad, use just enough. It's the same for every other micronutrient. It placed a lot of emphasis on maintaining 6.0 pH which is important in hydro.

Regarding the concentration in my nutrients that's what I pay the manufacturer to do. Using GH micro for 25 years and never had a problem.

Are you worried your plants are not getting enough zinc, or are you trying to unlock the secret sauce?

Poor zinc uptake will miniaturize the plant. I wouldn't worry about specifically supplementing zinc, I'd make sure it's included in a good balanced micronute supplementation. I have Flora Micro on hand. I'm lucky if I break it out more than once a grow, and usually just getting a little bit in there for the stretch. Most good feeding products have nice balanced micros already in there.

Mostly, mentioning Zinc made me think of this.
