{"product_id":"dutch-nutrient-potassium-silicate-1-litre","title":"Dutch Nutrient Potassium Silicate - 1 Litre","description":"\u003cp\u003eDutch Nutrient Potassium Silicate is a concentrated potassium silicate plant nutrient input designed to support stronger plant structure, environmental stress tolerance, and healthy growth. As a silica-focused nutrient product, it supports several structural and physiological functions that can help plants stay more resilient through challenging growing conditions. Its concentrated formulation is intended for growers looking to incorporate the benefits of potassium silicate into an established feeding program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePotassium silicate helps strengthen stalks and supports plants carrying more weight as they develop. Silica also contributes to plant structure by accumulating within epidermal cell walls, helping support the orientation of leaves toward the light source. This structural role can contribute to improved growth in both the root zone and foliage while supporting overall plant development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDutch Nutrient Potassium Silicate also supports increased tolerance of environmental stress, including heat, cold, drought, and challenging water or soil conditions. The product is described as helping increase resistance to pests and fungi while supporting stronger stems and improved plant resilience. These benefits make potassium silicate particularly relevant for growers focused on maintaining sturdy, well-supported plants when environmental conditions become less favourable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond structural support, potassium silicate is associated with balanced nutrient uptake and distribution within the plant. The formula also supports increased chlorophyll concentration and RUBP carboxylase concentration in leaves, both of which are connected with normal plant growth processes. Together with stronger stalks and improved environmental stress tolerance, these functions give the product a broad role in supporting plant performance without being limited to a single growth benefit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key input is potassium silicate, with silica providing the central structural and stress-support role described for the product. Its combination of stem-strength support, root and foliage growth support, nutrient uptake and distribution, and resilience to environmental stress makes Dutch Nutrient Potassium Silicate a good fit for growers seeking a concentrated silica nutrient product focused on plant strength and overall growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow to use:\u003cbr\u003eInstructions:\u003cbr\u003eFor every 1 litre of water, add 0.25 mL (¼ mL) of Dutch Nutrient Potassium Silicate. After the product has been added, check the pH of the water and adjust it to 6.5. Always make your final pH adjustment after adding the potassium silicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct benefits: Vegetative Stage; Flowering Stage; Indoor; Outdoor; Regular Watering; Watering Systems; Hydroponics; Coco Coir Safe; Soil; Soilless; Stronger Structure; Stronger Stems; Stress Support; Pest Defense; Fungal Defense; Growth Support; Chlorophyll Support; Better Nutrient Uptake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDerived from: Potassium Silicate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dutch Nutrient","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47826912510108,"sku":"DNFPS1L","price":29.86,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/0300\/8412\/files\/dutch-nutrient-potassium-silicate-500-ml.webp?v=1791305524","url":"https:\/\/provisiongardens.com\/products\/dutch-nutrient-potassium-silicate-1-litre","provider":"Provision Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
