Aptus FaSilitor

Aptus FaSilitor Potassium Silicate is a patented formula that is easily broken down to a single molecule level (mono-silicic acid) and stabilized with Boron. This formula is 100% bioavailable, meaning that once diluted into water it is available for immediate absorption by plants. FaSilitor has been shown in studies to modify plants’ mineral uptake behavior, increase the dry-weight of fruits & flowers and prevent stress caused by environmental factors.

FaSilitor is an extremely concentrated, pure, fast acting silica-based solution. It's patented formula works by increasing vascular pressure within the plant to heighten mineral translocation throughout its entire structure resulting in more complete, robust, quality tissue formation. 

There are 3 main types of silica products sold on the market today: Plant-available Silica (i.e. FaSilitor), Common suits of silicates (Potassium Silicate & Calcium Silicate) and Silica Dioxide (sand/quartz).

It’s important to understand that plants can only uptake and utilize silica once it has been broken down to a single molecule level (mono-silicic acid). Once silica has been broken down to a single molecule level the silica or silicic acid is then bioavailable and can be absorbed immediately by the plant either via the root or via the leaf.

The stabilized concentration of monomer silicic acid particles allows for fast response against abiotic stress factors (environmental), and increased yields all while utilizing natural mechanisms within the plant to gain these benefits.

Application: Root drench and foliar spray

Directions for Use: 

• Use for the entire vegetative and bloom cycles at the rate of 0.6ml per gallon or 3ml per 5 gallons. 
• During bloom transition, use at 1.2ml per gallon or 6ml per 5 gallon to reduce plant stretching.
