Can it be used for all plants?

Yes, it is suitable for all types of plants during all stages of growth.

What types of media can it be used in?

It can be used in hydroponics, Coco Coir and all types of media.

What are the benefits of using Armor Si?

It improves plant structure, foliar development, yield and flower production. Additionally, it increases stress resistance, drought and heat/cold tolerance in plants.

Can we use as foliar?

Armor Si™ is suitable for all types of plants during all stages of growth. It can be used for plants growing in hydroponics, Coco Coir and all types of media.

Which product in the GH flora series do you add first. Both armor si and flora micro claim they need to be added first?

Always add your silicate first allowing it to dissipate completely in the water prior to adding anything else. 5mins or so...The silica will bind to everything around it locking everything out so don’t give it anything to bind to.

Can silica be used in early flower at heavier doses to reduce plant stretch and node spacing?

Silica can be used in early flower. It helps with stem and stock thickness as well as heat and drought resistance. Keep in mind silica supplements are alkaline and will raise your ph.

Is this a comparable product to Dyna-gro Protekt?

Armor Si can be used in any situation where you were using Pro Tekt and is a great alternative. Armor Si will be more concentrated than Pro Tekt is, at 10% silicate compared to Pro Tekt's 7.8% so you most likely will need to use less to achieve the same results.

Why can’t this product be shipped to Oklahoma?

Probably banned by the state because they have local producers lobbying for their own products.

Need adjust ph before application When I want to use it as foliar spray???

We do not recommend spraying silica at all. Sensitivity issues can be harsh with this element on foliage, and plants do not absorb silica via stomata. It must be carried via the xylem in order to bond to tissue and be stitched into the tissue production process where it can be beneficial. The only benefit from foliar spraying Si, would be that it would suppress foliar expression of fungal diseases and you would want the solution to remain alkaline with a pH 9 or above for this use.

General Hydroponics Armor Si Plant Growth Enhancement, Quart

General Hydroponics Armor Si is a growth enhancer suitable for all types of plants, including those in hydroponics and Coco Coir.

Increases yield and flower/fruit production
Enhances heat and cold tolerance and stress resistance
Chelated
Comparable to Dyna-gro Protekt, but more concentrated

Cons

Low bioavailability
Not recommended for foliar spraying
Raises pH level
