Shogun Silicon

Product detailed description

 Shogun Silicon works like a warrior's armour. Silicon strengthens your plants so they can protect themselves from disease and pests. It's a basic building block of a strong cell wall - a plant with enough silicon can grow healthily and develop resilience against environmental stress. Additional silicon is important, especially in indoor growing - greenhouses, grow tents or places with high temperatures and infection risk. Silicon is usually present in substrates but not in a form the plant can actually absorb and use. Using Silicon won't protect your plants for sure - and definitely won't kill the pests, but it will significantly decrease their vulnerability.

If you use it according to the instruction, Shogun Silicon creates the highly beneficial silicic acid in the nutrient solution. Shogun also prevents pH levels from fluctuating wildly, saving your plants unnecessary stress. It can be used during any phase of the growing cycle - to support growth or blooming. 

Use and dosage:
- Always add Shogun Silicon into the nutrient solution first. Mix well, check the pH levels and adjust them to be below 7, then add the base fertilisers and other additives. Never mix the base fertilisers in if the pH value is above 7!
- Check out Shogun's video on preparing a nutrient solution with Shogun Silicon.

To feed the plants as intended, use the Shogun feeding charts. If you want a personalised feeding plan, use the Shogun Calculator, which tailors the chart according to your growing media, supplements and base fertilisers. In case you have further questions, contact us at info@higarden.eu.
