FLORAMAX SILICA contains 16% silica present as Mono-silicic Acid ("MSA") and Meta-silicic Acid ("MTSA")* . Both of these compounds are bio-available forms of silica and are completely soluble in nutrient solutions. This yields several benefits for hydroponic growers:
• Improves the rigidity of stems and leaves.
• Helps prevent leaf wilt during extreme heat.
• Increases weight, potency and shelf-life of fruit.
• FLORAMAX SILICA is highly concentrated and readily absorbed by plants (Monosilicic Acid & Metasilicic Acid).
• FLORAMAX SILICA is highly stable - shelf-life exceeds 20 years (testing origins predate 1998).
Silica is also very effective as a foliar spray.
