- Applications
Application of AgSil potassium silicate improves leaf erectness, reduces susceptibility to lodging in grasses and improves photosynthesis efficiency1 . For turf this can result in faster, healthier greens and athletic fields. Row crops, vine crops, ornamentals and hydroponically grown plants can all benefit from potassium silicate supplementation.
- Used In
Hydrous AgSil potassium silicate powders can be used in dry mix applications for land spreading. They may also be dissolved in other formulations (subject to compatibility) where additional water is not desired.
