Minerals help plants to grow because the plants will absorb the minerals into their roots. Certain minerals such as potassium and phosphorus will help the plants grow more leaves and increase their height.

Raddishes and spinach are high in iron. Many of the dark leafy green vegetables have iron in them. If a cirtrus tree has leaves that start turning yellow it means it's not getting enough iron in the ground.

All green areas of plants have iron. this is because these areas contain enzymes essential for photosynthesis which are primarily made from iron.
