Optimum Hydroponix Silicate MAX 0-0-8 is a concentrated jelly form of potassium silicate (K2Si) which is to be added to a nutrient solution* to provide supplemental silicon and potassium.
Applying silicon has been shown to enhance plant growth and increase tolerance to environmental stresses such as cold, heat or drought-like conditions by helping to reinforce plant cell walls. Especially useful in hydroponic applications where adequate supplies of silicon are not readily available.

Shake well before use.
Never add Optimum Hydroponix Silicate Max directly to a nutrient concentrate; add only to the final nutrient solution. Adjust pH levels around 5.8.
Hydroponics: Mix 7.5mL of Optimum Hydroponix silicate per 20 liter of nutrient solution
Soil/Coco Media Applications: Mix 0.2 mL of Optimum Hydroponix Silicate per Liter of water (or 4 mL per 20L) with every watering.
