THE MOST PURE 40% MONO SILICIC ACID - STRENGTHENS AND PROTECTS

Silicon and mono-silicic acid are the missing link in plant nutrition and protection - for all gardeners.

Mono-silicic acid is the most effective form of silicon available to gardeners, and Grow-Genius 40% mono-silicic is the best value true mono available today.

Silicon is an important nutritional element for many organisms, including humans. In plants, it provides physical reinforcement against insect and mould attacks on leaves and flowers, strengthens cell walls allowing faster growth, confers resistance against biological and environmental stress, and even allows plants to reduce water loss. 

The physiological reinforcement that silicon provides not only prevents penetration by mould spores but literally wears out the mouthparts of pests; from mites to Caterpillars, ensuring dramatic reductions in pest control requirements both indoors and outdoors - which is helpful because silicon also allows bigger and sweeter fruit development with improved lifespan after picking, often achieved using a lot of extremely toxic chemicals. 

There are many silicon supplements on the market today - but plants only take up silicon in the form of mono-silicic acids: individual silicon atoms surrounded by hydrogen and oxygen - and most silicon products contain silicates: long chains of silicon that root or microbe chemistry takes weeks or months to convert into mono-silicic acids that plants can use.  This is why stabilised mono-silicic acid is so effective: it is already in bioavailable form, meaning plants can access and use it immediately.

Organic usage

Grow Genius mono-silicic acid is not an organic product, but it is compatible with mycorrhizae and bacteria-friendly growing techniques at the application rates we recommend. Silicon is not harmful to most beneficial microorganisms and low levels of ethanols are digestible by many soil-borne bacteria and fungi. But above all, because our mono-silicic is so concentrated, net addition of product to the soil is tiny: just 0.03ml/L in solution. This is the benefit of treating trace elements as they should be: like vitamins, not food. Mono-silicic (also known as Orthosilicic / Monosilicic acid) has powerful effects at very small dosages meaning fewer chemical inputs and better outcomes for your plants.
