Phytomax Potassium Silicate (Powder Form)
This fertilizer enhances fruit firmness, shelf life, and size, particularly in crops such as strawberries.
The combination of silicon (Si) and potassium (K) strengthens each other’s effects — promoting photosynthesis, reducing transpiration, lowering heavy metal accumulation, and stimulating apical bud growth while increasing stem rigidity.
Additionally, it reduces lodging (stem bending) in cereals, especially rice and wheat, and increases plant resistance to sucking insects.
Improves yield and fertility in a wide range of crops including cereals (especially rice), vegetables, and fruit trees.
Enhances resistance to environmental stresses such as heat, cold, drought, and salinity.
Increases post-harvest shelf life of produce.
Improves visual and sensory quality (color and taste).
