Silica\u003c\/strong\u003e is ideal for growers looking to improve \u003cstrong\u003eplant strength, stem development and environmental stress resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e throughout the growing cycle. Suitable for beginners, experienced hydroponic growers and commercial cultivators, this concentrated \u003cstrong\u003esilicon plant supplement\u003c\/strong\u003e provides additional structural support for plants grown in \u003cstrong\u003esoil, coco and hydroponic systems\u003c\/strong\u003e. Whether cultivating in a compact indoor \u003cstrong\u003egrow tent\u003c\/strong\u003e, a dedicated grow room, greenhouse or larger commercial growing facility, Bloom Silica is particularly useful for plants developing heavy flowers or fruits, as well as crops exposed to heat, fluctuating humidity or other environmental stresses. It is also a practical addition to established \u003cstrong\u003ehydroponic nutrient feeding programmes\u003c\/strong\u003e where stronger plant tissues and improved resilience are desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUse \u003cstrong\u003eBloom Yellow Bottles Silica\u003c\/strong\u003e as a supplementary additive during the \u003cstrong\u003evegetative and flowering stages\u003c\/strong\u003e. For \u003cstrong\u003erecirculating hydroponic systems and soil cultivation\u003c\/strong\u003e, the manufacturer's recommended application rate is \u003cstrong\u003e0.17ml per litre of nutrient solution\u003c\/strong\u003e. For \u003cstrong\u003erun-to-waste systems\u003c\/strong\u003e, use \u003cstrong\u003e0.33ml per litre\u003c\/strong\u003e. Always follow the appropriate Bloom Advanced Floriculture feeding schedule for your growing method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause \u003cstrong\u003eBloom Silica is highly alkaline\u003c\/strong\u003e, it requires careful preparation. Dilute the measured Silica in a separate container of water and mix thoroughly. Adjust the diluted solution to approximately \u003cstrong\u003epH 7\u003c\/strong\u003e before introducing it into the nutrient reservoir. Prepare and add your base nutrients according to the relevant feeding instructions, ensuring each component is thoroughly mixed. \u003cstrong\u003eNever combine concentrated Silica directly with concentrated base nutrients or other additives\u003c\/strong\u003e, as incompatible concentrated solutions may cause precipitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce all nutrients and supplements have been added, check the final solution's \u003cstrong\u003epH and EC levels\u003c\/strong\u003e and adjust as required for your crop and growing medium. When using Silica to increase nutrient solution pH, take care not to exceed the desired level. The manufacturer recommends continued application throughout the growing cycle, stopping at least \u003cstrong\u003eone week before harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e during the final flushing period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Handling Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bloom Silica is a strongly alkaline concentrate and must be handled with care. Wear suitable protective gloves and eye protection, avoid contact with skin and eyes, and keep the product away from children and pets. Always follow the manufacturer's label and safety instructions when measuring, diluting and applying the product.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloom Yellow Bottles","offers":[{"title":"250ml","offer_id":59851158192460,"sku":"BYB-SILICA-250ML","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1L","offer_id":59851158225228,"sku":"BYB-SILICA-1L","price":71.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/3044\/4620\/files\/bloom-yellow-bottles-silica.jpg?v=1794241818","url":"https:\/\/hytechydroponics.com\/products\/bloom-yellow-bottles-silica-potassium-silicate","provider":"Hytec Horticulture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
