Silicfol
Silicfol is a completely water-soluble liquid fertilizer that contains 20% silica (SiO2) and 8% potassium (K2O), which increases the plant's resistance to a variety of pests and diseases. The presence of potassium and silica in this fertilizer increases photosynthesis, the strength of stems and leaves. Silicfol also boosts the concentration of chlorophyll per unit leaf area and improves crop quality.
