Silicon Supplements Demystified: Clearing Up the Confusion about Silicon-Fertilizer Labels & Marketing Claims - Emerald Harvest
12:40 – 1:10 PM ET
Dan Mair, Communications and Product Management Consultant, Emerald Harvest Nutrients
More and more growers are including silicon supplements in their feeding programs to impart more strength and resistance to their crops. However, different active ingredients are listed on silicon-based product labels, ranging from silica or silicon dioxide to monosilicic acid. How can growers make sense of it? Which silicon compound provides plant benefits? Which silicon compound is actually absorbed by plants? Which silicon compound must be supplied as a raw material in the bottle? It may surprise growers to learn that all silicon supplements and their ingredients are fundamentally the same. In this webinar, we’ll break down the science of silicon, explain silicon fertilization, and clear up the label confusion.
