Flairform SilikaMagic Silica 1L

• SilikaMajic potassium supplement is shelf stable for over 10 years. This guarantees performance. Did you know many silica brands* are useless within 6 months of manufacture? *As determined by the internationally recognised ‘molybdosilicate’ analytical method.

• Produces healthier & stronger plant growth: Once silica is taken up by the roots, it is deposited in the plants cell walls as a solid, rigid ‘quartz-like’ matrix. This produces a mechanically stronger plant which enables superior leaf orientation and therefore greater rates of photosynthesis and growth.
• Increases weight & shelf-life of fruit: Accumulation of silica in plant cells increases cell weight and integrity.
• Increases plant tolerance to heat stress (wilting).
• Improves the healing rate and neatness of pruning wounds: This property is especially beneficial in commercial cropping of plants such as tomato and cucumber where regular pruning threatens the plant’s survival due to the risk of disease ingress.
• SilikaMajic potassium supplement contains 26% Potassium Silicate (NPK 0-0-15).
• Silica must be used throughout both vegetative and flowering phases. Electron microscopy and x-ray analysis both confirm that existing silica within the plant is not mobile and cannot benefit new growth. To benefit new growth therefore, silica must be present at all times in the nutrient solution. Various research projects have shown that the presence of silica in plant tissue produces several beneficial side effects:
  ● Silica produces healthier and stronger plant growth. When silica is taken up by the roots, it is deposited in the cell walls of the plant as a solid, rigid ‘quartz-like’ matrix. This produces a ‘mechanically’ stronger plant which enables superior leaf orientation and therefore greater rates of photosynthesis and growth.
  ● Increases the weight and shelf-life of fruit due to the physical accumulation of silica in plant cells.
