Growth Technology Liquid Silicon

Stronger stems and thicker growth from the inside out

Growth Technology Liquid Silicon is a silicon supplement that strengthens cell wall formation, making plants more resistant to insects and disease and cutting water loss through leaf transpiration. It's a cost-effective, general-purpose booster that works with most substrates and watering systems, and because it is highly alkaline it can also be used to raise the pH of a nutrient solution that's running low.

Struggling with weak stems and stretchy growth?

Thin stems and lanky growth often mean plants aren't building strong enough cell walls to support themselves. After introducing Liquid Silicon, growers typically see thicker, sturdier stems and darker, bushier foliage as the plant's structure firms up.

Key Benefits

• Stronger cell walls: reinforces plant structure for thicker, sturdier stems.
• Pest and disease resistance: toughened cell walls make plants more resilient.
• Reduced water loss: lowers transpiration losses through the leaves.
• Darker, bushier foliage: a visible lift in canopy density and colour.
• Raises pH: highly alkaline, so it doubles as a corrector for low-pH solutions.

How to Use

• All media, rooted clones/seedlings to flush: 1ml per litre of nutrient solution.
• Add silicon to the water first, before your base nutrients, to avoid nutrient lock-out.
• Mix thoroughly, then check and adjust pH - it will push readings upward.
