It was observed that some varieties have preference, if not luxurious consumption for specific elements. Among the varieties, Phil 7495 and Phil 7779, a low tillering variety required less amount of nutrient to maintain normal biomass production. While Phil 56226, a high tillering variety required higher N, K, and Mg at six months compared to other varieties. Root mass was not significantly associated with nutrient uptake in this study which leads to conclude that root mass is not the main contributing factor to nutrient absorption. Nutrient uptake as of these findings is still not a good index for determining biomass yield at harvest
