The best food for the best plants
You are what you eat. If you eat healthy, you will be healthy. The same goes for strawberry plants.
Strawberries are one of the most popular and widely grown fruits in the world, and for good reason. These juicy, sweet, and nutritious fruits are enjoyed by people of all ages and are an important part of a healthy diet. However, for a strawberry plant to grow strong, healthy, and produce abundant yields, it is crucial that it receives the right nutrients. Varmers is very much aware of this and produces the best nutrients in-house.
Commonly used Synthetic Fertilizers
Conventional, Chemical-Based Nutrients
- Environmental Harm: Can contribute to soil degradation, water pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions.
- Chemical Content: Contains chemicals that can be harmful to the environment and potentially to human health.
- Dependency: Long-term use can lead to soil degradation and dependency on synthetic inputs.
- Potential for Overuse: Easy to overapply, leading to nutrient runoff and environmental harm.
- Soil Health Neglect: Focuses on providing nutrients without enhancing overall soil health.
Varmers Nutrients
We don’t serve these issues!
- Chemical-Free: Does not contain harmful chemicals, making it safer for the environment, soil, and potentially for the crops as well.
- Soil Health Improvement: Long-term use can improve soil health and reduce the presence of harmful chemicals in the soil.
- Solid Form: Easy to store and handle, and does not have issues related to clustering.
- Made from Natural Minerals: Utilizes natural resources, potentially making it a more sustainable option.
- Does Not Require A/B Components: Simplifies the nutrient application process since there is no need to mix different components.
Synthetic Nutrients vs. Varmers Nutrients
Various chemicals found in plant nutrients, specifically synthetic fertilizers, can have detrimental effects on the environment when they are not used responsibly and in appropriate quantities.
The primary chemicals of concern include
Nitrogen:
Forms: Ammonium (NH₄⁺), Nitrate (NO₃⁻), Urea.
Environmental Issues:
- Nitrate Leaching: Can contaminate groundwater, posing risks to human health (e.g., methemoglobinemia or “blue baby syndrome”).
- Nitrous Oxide Emissions: A greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. It is released from fertilized soils through microbial processes.
- Algal Blooms: Excess nitrogen in water bodies can lead to harmful algal blooms, which can produce toxins harmful to aquatic life and humans.
Phosphorus:
Forms: Phosphate (PO₄³⁻).
Environmental Issues:
- Eutrophication: Contributes to the over-fertilization of water bodies, leading to algal blooms and dead zones.
- Runoff and Soil Erosion: Phosphorus binds to soil particles, so it can be transported to water bodies through runoff and soil erosion.
- Mining Concerns: Phosphate rock mining for fertilizer production has ecological and human health concerns, including habitat destruction and exposure to toxic substances.
Potassium:
Forms: Potassium ions (K⁺).
Environmental Issues:
While potassium is less likely to cause direct environmental harm compared to nitrogen and phosphorus, the mining and processing of potash for fertilizer production can lead to habitat destruction, water consumption, and pollution.
Other Chemicals:
Fertilizers can also contain trace amounts of heavy metals and other contaminants, depending on the source of the fertilizer. These can accumulate in the soil and enter the food chain, posing risks to human health and the environment.

What does a strawberry plant need?
Strawberries are heavy feeders and require an abundant supply of nutrients to thrive. The three most important nutrients for strawberries are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Nitrogen is essential for leaf growth and the production of chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis. Phosphorus is important for root development, flower production, and fruit set, while potassium is essential for the overall health and vigor of the plant.
In addition to these macronutrients, strawberries also require micronutrients such as magnesium, calcium, iron, and others. Magnesium, for example, is essential for chlorophyll production and plays a key role in the growth and development of the plant. Calcium is important for cell wall strength, while iron is essential for chlorophyll synthesis and overall plant health.
A lack of any of these nutrients can negatively impact the growth and productivity of strawberry plants. For example, a deficiency in nitrogen can result in stunted growth and yellowing of leaves. A lack of phosphorus can result in poor root development and a decrease in flower and fruit production. A potassium deficiency can lead to weak stems and reduced plant resistance to disease.
To ensure that our strawberry plants receive the nutrients they need, we have created a balanced fertilizer that contains the right proportions of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. In addition, soil testing is used to determine the levels of nutrients in the soil and guide fertilization decisions.

Differences relating to other Nutrient products
99% of Hydroponic and Plant Nutrients are sold as a 2 part liquid formula, Due to these factors:
- They can be made from low grade, inexpensive raw materials, so they have to be sold as a liquid product as they do not have 100% water soluble characteristics in their original forms.
- Chemicals can be used without detection. This makes them cheaper to produce but also more harmful to the environment and crops.
- They are made from minerals and liquid form chemicals that react to each other and negative chemical reactions would occur if they were housed together in the same container.
Negative Aspects to Liquid Formulas
- They are up to 10 times weaker than a single powder nutrient formula and therefore you have to buy, ship and store 10 times as much to get the same growth rates.
- When transporting or importing, you are paying to Transport / Import and Store mostly water, which is very heavy and takes up a lot of freight and storage space. This also has a negative impact on the environment as more global shipping is required. All mineral nutrients start life as powder minerals and then 70 to 90% water is added.
- They are more complicated to mix.
