SilicaPower from PlantoSys is a unique biostimulant that harnesses the power of silicon to enhance plant health and resilience. In this blog, we discuss the benefits of SilicaPower and explain why using biostimulants is a conscious choice for more sustainable professional horticulture
The Power of Silicon
Silicon is an essential element for plants but is often overlooked in traditional fertilization programs. SilicaPower provides plants with the optimal amount of silicon in the form of orthosilicates, which are easily absorbed by the plant.
Once absorbed, silicon performs several crucial functions in the plant:
- Strengthening cell walls: Silicon strengthens plant cell walls, making them more resistant to abiotic stress factors such as drought, heat, cold, and UV radiation.
- Improved nutrient uptake: Silicon enhances the uptake of essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.
- Increased photosynthesis: Silicon stimulates chlorophyll production, leading to more efficient photosynthesis and higher yields.
- Enhanced resistance to diseases and pests: Silicon makes plants less susceptible to diseases and pests, reducing the need for pesticides.
Why Choose Biostimulants?
The benefits of SilicaPower extend beyond the direct benefits to the plant. By using biostimulants like SilicaPower, we make a conscious choice for more sustainable horticulture:
- Reduced environmental impact: Biostimulants stimulate natural processes in the plant, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and chemical pesticides. This leads to a reduction in the environmental impact of the horticulture sector.
- Improved soil health: Biostimulants promote soil life and contribute to a healthier soil structure. This results in better water and nutrient retention in the soil.
- Higher crop quality: Plants treated with biostimulants produce crops with higher quality, longer shelf life, and better flavor.
A Conscious Step for the Future
The transition to using biostimulants in professional horticulture may seem like a daunting step. However, scientific evidence and practical experience demonstrate the undeniable benefits for plants, the environment, and growers. With SilicaPower from PlantoSys, you choose a proven and effective solution to optimize your crops while simultaneously reducing your ecological footprint. Invest in a sustainable future for horticulture!
