Silex is an exciting NEW product manufactured by a unique process primarily involving sodium silicon and sulphuric acid which result in the production of orthosilicic acid, the only form of silicon that can be absorbed by plants.
The result is a wafer-thin coating of orthosilicic acid containing the tinies possible particles of silicon measuring no more than between 1-100 nanometres. Any remaining sodium is subsequently filtered out. This form of silicon is extremely stable.
Ferro Silex offers some great benefits:
- Protect against abiotic factors such as heat, drought and salt stress
- Actively contributes to inter-grating silicon in the cell walls of the plant, thereby massively strengthening the cell walls
- Regulate perspiration (also known as evaporation) thereby increasing water efficiency - Improving the functioning of the plant in periods of heat and drought
- Improves calcium transport resulting in a higher sugar content, improved storage life and heavier flower. Calcium is responsible for much of the end weight of harvest.
- Available and in stock in all 5 Sizes
