Stems bend under load in late flower, leaf tissue gives up quickly under heat stress, and nutrient uptake stays inefficient however well the feed is mixed, showing up as slow growth and low yields. Silicon is laid down in cell walls as the plant builds them, so it has to be present in every feed rather than added late.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e mix \u003cstrong\u003e1 ml per 1 litre\u003c\/strong\u003e of water and apply with every watering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoco coir:\u003c\/strong\u003e mix \u003cstrong\u003e1 ml per 1 litre\u003c\/strong\u003e of water and apply with every watering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhole cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e use from early growth right through flowering, not just in veg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation:\u003c\/strong\u003e shake well, add to water, stir until fully mixed and feed as normal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMixing order:\u003c\/strong\u003e add Silic Rock to plain water first, before base feeds and other additives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e check and adjust after mixing, as silicon raises the pH of the solution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot for recirculating hydroponics\u003c\/strong\u003e such as NFT, DWC or aeroponics; flush irrigation pipes after use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silicon fertiliser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDilution:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 ml per 1 litre of water (1:1000)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every watering, whole cultivation period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable media:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soil, coco coir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot suitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Recirculating hydro systems (NFT, DWC, aeroponics)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAftercare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flush irrigation pipes after use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Plagron","offers":[{"title":"250ml","offer_id":53445707038986,"sku":null,"price":6.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500ml","offer_id":53445707071754,"sku":null,"price":9.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Litre","offer_id":53445707104522,"sku":null,"price":13.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/silic_rock_group.jpg?v=1785290970","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/plagron-silic-rock-boost-nutrient-uptake-plant-strength","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
