Botanicare Silica Blast - 5 Gal

Silicon Support for Sturdier Plants - 5 Gal Supply

Heat, drought and cold swings can leave plants weak and prone to losing structure. Botanicare Silica Blast supplies a soluble form of silicon that may help strengthen plant tissue and support upright, resilient growth. It mixes into your regular feed routine, so you add it to the water you already prepare.

The 5 Gal size suits growers who dose often: indoor growers running several reservoirs or containers, and commercial operations that want a steady supply of supplement without reordering frequently. Hobbyists can use it too, since dosing is measured in milliliters per gallon.
