The Problem
Silicon is like skin for a plant; it helps form the outer layers of the cell wall to better protect the plant from environmental stressors and disease pressures. Poor silica chemistry ties this valuable element up and decreases the plant’s natural ability to fight off predators.
The Solution
Silica Skin is a source of readily available silicon, which can help thicken the outer layer of cell walls and form a stronger defensive barrier against pests and pathogens. Silica Skin can also improve plant resistance to drought stress by reducing water loss during times of extreme heat and light intensity.

Broad Spectrum Extracts
We work with the highest quality natural inputs to derive the full spectrum of beneficial substances. Silica Skin is a natural source of silicon, which not only helps to increase photosynthetic efficiency, but can also increases growth, yield, and quality.
Silica Skin is our silicon supplement.
It is a natural source of silicon, derived from natural sand, complexed with unique plant-based organic acids. It is 100% available for plants to take up immediately both as a foliar spray and a root drench.
Our unique plant-based organic acid complex allows Silica Skin to be much more stable in reservoirs than many other silicon products; and when used in conjunction with the rest of our line, it will not precipitate or form insoluble gels when used as directed.
Silica Skin is derived from: Fermented plant material (Equisetum arvense, Hibiscus sabdariffa) and potassium silicate.

Horsetail
One of the oldest plants on earth, horsetail (Equisetum arvense) is a hyperaccumulator of silicon and is unique in its ability to take up more silicon than any other element.
Extracts of horsetail have been studied for their benefits to plant health, which are attributed in part due to its high silicon content.
Hibiscus
Hibiscus flowers (Hibiscus sabdariffa) are rich in a wide variety of organic acids: citric, malic, tartaric, and many others including one that is rarely produced by other plants – hydroxycitric acid.
It has been an important and symbolic crop for over 6,000 years in Western Africa, where the whole plant has been used as food and medicine.
