Grow Genius Mono-Silicic
40% Mono-Silicic Acid (19% Silicon w/w)
Grow Genius Mono-Silicic - the ultimate plant-available silicon nutrient for all plants in all settings.
Their GG40% contains 40% mono silicic acid w/w, making it the strongest, cleanest, and best value silicon nutrient on the market. With a unique new approach, GG40% delivers a pH neutral source of silicon that is tens to thousands of times cleaner and more concentrated than anything else available.
Silicon is essential for strengthening natural growth and defences in plants, leading to bigger, healthier plants with increased resistance to fungal pathogens like powdery mildew and botrytis, as well as pests such as thrips, mites, and aphids. GG40% also helps plants withstand heat stress, water stress, high winds, and damage from pruning, while protecting them from toxicity caused by heavy metals and other undesirable elements in the soil. Whether you are a beginner or experienced hydroponic grower, Grow Genius Mono-Silicic is the perfect solution for all your growing needs.

- Don’t spray under full lights, in strong sun or with leaf temperatures over 30C.
Organic usage:
Although Grow Genius mono-silicic acid is not certified organic, it is compatible with mycorrhizae and bacteria friendly growing techniques when used at recommended rates. Silicon does not harm most beneficial microorganisms and low levels of ethanols can be digested by many soil borne bacteria and fungi. Since their monosilicic acid is highly concentrated, the amount added to the soil is minimal: just 0.03ml/L in solution. This approach treats trace elements as they should be: like vitamins, not food.
Mono-silicic acid (also known as orthosilicic and silicic acid) has powerful effects at very small dosages meaning less input all round, and better outcomes for your plants.
Grow Genius Mono Silicic can be used on all mediums including coco, hydroponics and soil.
Available in 10ml and 100ml.
Warnings:
- Close the container securely immediately after use: ethanol evaporates quickly!
- Do not allow any water or dirt into the container: GG mono will re-polymerise on contact. Use a pipette or other appropriate measuring equipment to measure out the required dosage (pipette included with the 10ml size).
- Contains ethanols and silicon: safe for plants when used as directed, but not for direct contact with humans: do not ingest, breathe or allow contact with eyes/skin.
- Always avoid breathing mist from spraying this or any garden product: always wear an appropriately rated mask, eye and hand protection when working with garden chemicals.
