Nobody in the Hydro industry is telling you this ⬇️
The Strait of Hormuz carries 1/3 of the world’s fertilizer trade and it’s been effectively closed since the Iran conflict started Feb 28. Nitrogen prices are up 50%+ and that trickles into everything on your nutrient shelf.
3 moves to stay ahead:
1️⃣ Stock nitrogen-based products now at current prices
2️⃣ Buy concentrates — cheaper per gallon, and that gap grows when prices rise
3️⃣ Tighten your pH/EC — every drop of runoff is money wasted
