Plant concentrations of essential elements may exceed the critical concentrations, the minimum concentrations required for growth, and may vary somewhat from species to species. Nonetheless, the above table gives the general requirements of plants.
Somewhat arbitrarily, a dividing line is drawn between those nutrients required in greater quantities, macronutrients, and those elements required in smaller quantities, micronutrients. This division does not mean that one nutrient element is more important than another, just that they are required in different quantities and concentrations. On the table above, the dividing line is typically drawn between S and Cl, meaning that:
Macronutrients: N, K, Ca, Mg, P, and S, and
Micronutrients: Cl, Fe, B, Mn, Zn, Cu, Mo, and Ni
