Hi karenk,

Your question: What is NPN?

Answer: Non-Protein Nitrogen.

Protein is made from Nitrogen by plants, but when the Nitrogen is not allowed to fully Complex and finish making True proteins, then the plant may have Free Nitrogen in the plant Tissues?

This Free Nitrogen is called NPN, because this Free Nitrogen was never Complexed into a True Protein ! !

One of the main problems of NPN may be Nitrogen Toxicity:

The term "nitrate toxicity" is commonly used but the toxic principle is actually
nitrite. When Nitrate is converted to nitrite. Nitrite is absorbed from the
digestive system converting blood hemoglobin to methemoglobin. Methemoglobin
cannot transport oxygen to body tissues, so People and animals die from oxygen
insufficiency.

Cause and Effect !

Smile Tis your choice.
