Electrical conductivity of nutrient solutions affects the growth, nutrient levels, and content and composition of essential oils of Acmella oleracea (L.) R. K. Jansen from southeastern Brazil

Jambu, a plant native to the Amazon, is rich in essential oils, particularly spilanthols and phytols. Although hydroponic cultivation of this vegetable is practiced, the process remains relatively understudied. In this context, this study aimed to assess the influence of electrical conductivity of n...
