How about some vitamins from fruit juices?

fruit juice? vitamin from plants? First time I heard this idea

[Aeon]

Yea many of ADA's products have vitamins (don't know which). The best source of vitamins I can think of is fruit juices, minus the pulp. It's really natural but not too much as some can be acidic.

Is this just insane or actually viable?

I don't think plants need the same kind of vitamins that we do. fishes do though.

"Plants, he said, have two options to defend themselves from ozone. They can prevent ozone from entering the leaf by closing their stomata, or use the antioxidant qualities of vitamin C to detoxify the ozone that enters through open stomata and also protect the photosynthetic machinery in the leaf."

I surprise, does it applicable for aquatic plant?
