Potassium silicate solid 3558

Hydroponic grade Water Soluble Potassium Silicate fertilizer

Potassium silicate solid 3558 potassium silicate offers growers these performance benefits in many agricultural applications:

  • Provides resistance to mineral stress.
  • Decreases climate stress.
  • Improves strength.
  • Increases growth and yield.

Potassium silicate solid 3558 potassium silicate helps plants to resist toxicity from phosphorous, manganese, aluminum, and iron, and increases tolerance to salt 1. Potassium silicate solid 3558 potassium silicate also aids in resistance to drought by reducing water loss, and in some cases it may increase growth and yield 1-5.

Application of Potassium silicate solid 3558 potassium silicate improves leaf erectness, reduces susceptibility to lodging in grasses, and improves photosynthesis efficiency 1. For turf this can result in faster, healthier greens and athletic fields. Row crops, vine crops, ornamentals, and hydroponically grown plants can all benefit from potassium silicate supplementation.

This is a 1.6 weight ratio, hydrous potassium silicate powder with 32% K2O and 52.8% SiO2 and 14.8% H2O.

Potassium soap is an effective solution for removing honeydew and black mold that are often secreted by insects. These substances can be harmful to plants as they attract pests and hinder their growth. This soap is made up of 25% w/w potassium oleate, which is a powerful ingredient that can remove even the toughest of residues.

To use it, mix 10 ml of the product in a liter of water and apply it to the plant every 8-10 days until it is clean. This will help to remove any dirt or molasses that may have accumulated on the leaves and branches of the plant. To reduce the incidence of pests, mix 20 ml of product per liter of water and spray the leaves and branches of the plant. This will help to create a protective barrier that will prevent pests from settling on the plant and causing damage.
