BENESTIM SILICA

BeneSTIM Silica is a liquid biostimulant and contains a concentration of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and orthosilicic acid (Si(OH)4). Its pH range is, between 2.5 and 4 allowing the product to maintain stability after being diluted with water. Unlike silicon products in the market that quickly form gels upon dilution, which hampers their absorption and utilization by plants Silica stands out.

The application of silica on plants proves to be beneficial in two ways:

  • SiO2 acts as an irritant for insects that feed on plants.
  • Once absorbed Si(OH)4 strengthens cell walls. Provides plants with increased resilience.

Silica is a product that retains its stability even after being diluted with water ensuring optimal availability for plant uptake. By enhancing the integrity of cells Silica helps plants develop resistance against various stressors and diseases.

When applied to leaves Silica proves to be irritating for insects that feed on plants. The quality and composition of the product are guaranteed through party certificates providing customers with assurance that they will receive exactly what is promised.

Silica is a solution, for strengthening plants and enhancing the resilience of plant types.
Healthy and strong plants naturally have an increased ability to resist factors resulting in overall plant quality and improved harvested products. Benefert guarantees that their Silica product contains at 30% SiO2, which enhances its effectiveness and value.
