SB ProSilicon provides the plant with a readily assimilated source of silicon to strengthen cell walls encouraging more upright growth; reducing the physical effects of drought stress; improving transport within the plant and maximizing efficient photosynthesis through improved stomatal function.
The strengthening of the plant stem allows an increased height of cut whilst maintaining putting speeds and improves Poa seed head removal during mowing.
Application
ProSilicon is best applied as a foliar at a rate of 5 litres per Ha in 200-400 litres of water.
ProSilicon can be applied every 2-4weeks throughout the year.
ProSilicon can be applied to:

Compatibility: ProSilicon is not compatible for mixing with any more of inorganic or organic nitrogen.
ProSilicon is compatible with all non-nitrogen based inorganic and organic fertilizers, as well
as bio-stimulants and fungicides.
ProSilicon is suitable for use as part of a compost tea programme but should not be added
directly to the brewer.
