I agree... Mn was my biggest problem.or environmental/ biological conditions, and how they can limit micros, helping them leach or bind in to non available states, or otherwise restrict access where we dont have deficiency in stores
Manganese deficiency
The availability of Mn in soil is strongly related to soil pH. Soils with higher pH have lower Mn availability than soils with lower pH. Mn deficiency is therefore more likely to be a problem on alkaline soils. However, responses to Mn have also been recorded on impoverished, acid to neutral sandy soils.
The availability of Mn is also strongly affected by seasonal conditions and the availability is lowest during a dry spring. Transient Mn deficiency may also appear during cold, wet conditions but affected plants are often seen to recover following rains in spring when soil temperatures are high.
