Detailed Description
Product Overview
BIO-SIL is a pure liquid silicate containing 17% nano-sized silica, designed to supply silica to crops. Silicic acid is not an essential nutrient for plants, but in the case of plants of the grass family, if it is deficient, growth is stunted and serious damage to the yield occurs. In addition, it has been recently announced that when cucurbits such as cucumbers, pumpkins, and melons are deficient in silicon, leaf growth is reduced and fruiting is poor. In the case of bulbs such as potatoes, garlic, and onions, it is known to have a very important function in root vitality and disease resistance. This product is a liquefied form of 10 nano-sized silicon in order to stably supply silicon to plants through foliar fertilization or irrigation. When this product is used, the leaves become stiff and there is less leaf drooping in high temperatures, which reduces the occurrence of diseases such as mold and strengthens the stems, reducing damage from falling over in the wind.
