Botanicare Silica Blast

Botanicare Silica Blast reinforces and enhances plant tissues leading to bigger harvests, increased fruit quality and higher resistance to environmental stressors. Silicate is a beneficial nutrient supplement to be used in conjunction with a standard nutrient program. Silicate helps strengthen plant tissue, helping plants flourish in adverse environmental conditions such as heat, drought and frost.

Potassium silicate has been used in field crops for years due to its positive effects on plant vigor, photosynthesis, transpiration and hardiness. This readily available form of silicate is absorbed and bound in the plant’s tissues within 24 hours of uptake. As it is absorbed, the highly available form of silica creates a silicate matrix within the cell walls of your plants. This helps to physically increase cell wall structure while protecting against external stressors. In extreme environments it is common for your plants to transpire excessively which can lead to a decrease in metabolic functions and stunted or no growth. Using Silica Blast can help decrease these common problems.
