Micro nutrient question

[elious]

With a grow setup that doesn't use soil (hydroponics, aeroponics) how are micro nutrients delivered to the plants? I understand that the micro nutrients are too little to measure out yourself but they are also essential to healthy plant growth. Are there special nutrients made specifically for hydro and aero?

A solid nutrient program will include both macro and micro nutrients.

Is that to say that a (for example) 10-3-6 nutritional balance would include the micro nutients in it?

It's impossible to know unless you read the back of the bottle.

Some companies put them all together, others use NPK in the base and you have to supplement with Cal-Mag

Okay, well that answers my question. Thank you for your time and sharing your knowledge.
