Use Indigo® ammonia test strips to monitor nutrient solution health in hydroponic and greenhouse systems. Prevent plant stress and ensure balanced nitrogen availability.

Keep your hydroponic or greenhouse system in peak condition with Indigo Instruments’ ammonia/ammonium test strips. Fast and easy to use, these colorimetric tests reveal nitrogen imbalances that can harm plant roots and slow growth. Ideal for both hobby growers and commercial operations, they help maintain healthy nutrient solutions by detecting excess ammonia before it becomes toxic.

Learning Outcomes by Discipline

Discipline Learning Outcomes / Key Features
Plant Science Explain how ammonia and ammonium levels affect nutrient uptake, root metabolism, and plant stress responses in hydroponic systems.
Environmental Science Understand nitrogen cycling and its role in sustainable controlled-environment agriculture.
Chemistry / Biochemistry Relate chemical equilibria between NH3 and NH4+ to solution pH and temperature in aqueous systems.
Agricultural Technology Apply rapid ammonia testing to maintain nutrient stability and automate dosing or filtration systems in commercial operations.

Best Practices

  • Test nutrient solution weekly, or after adding nitrogen-based fertilizers.
  • Maintain adequate aeration to support nitrifying bacteria.
  • Replace or refresh nutrient solutions when ammonia is detected above 0.5 ppm.
  • Avoid overfeeding—unused nitrogen compounds convert to ammonia over time.
  • Use readings to fine-tune fertilizer schedules and maintain balanced growth.
