Quantum AquaSil 100 ml

A highly concentrated complex fertilizer for foliar feeding of agricultural, vegetable, fruit, and ornamental crops. Contains a special formulation of silicon and potassium with added humic substances for better absorption.

Chemical composition and properties:

• SiO₂ - 20% (200 g/L);
• K₂O - 10% (100 g/L);
• Density - 1.20 - 1.25 kg/L

Also contains a complex of biologically active substances.

Action and effect of the micronutrient

The product contains plant-available forms of silicon and potassium combined with humic substances. It is used for foliar feeding of agricultural, vegetable, fruit, and ornamental crops to:

• forming strong, viable cell walls in epidermal tissues to prevent unproductive water transpiration;
• maintaining potassium balance in stomatal cells;
• reducing transpiration under drought conditions;
• improving plant cooling in hot weather;
• forming additional barriers against pests and diseases;
• strengthening cell walls;
• increasing the strength of the stem in dicotyledonous plants and the grass canopy in monocotyledonous plants (cereal crops, corn, forage and lawn grasses);
• extending fruit storage life;
• strengthening plant immunity.

The positive effect of silicon on plant growth and development is based on increased plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses

20–30% of the silicon present in a plant’s body may participate in the process of maintaining internal water reserves

Application technology

Spraying

During foliar feeding, the application rate of the working solution is:

• for field crops - 200-400 L/ha;
• for grapes and fruit crops - 500-1000 L/ha;
• for berry crops (strawberries, wild strawberries) - 200-400 L/ha;
• for bush berries (currants, gooseberries) – 300–500 L/ha;
• for lawn grasses – 300–1000 L/ha (5–10 L/100 m²);
• for tall ornamental trees – 8–10 L/tree;
• for low-growing, young trees and shrubs – 5 L/plant.

Treatments are performed using standard sprayers. The working solution is prepared immediately before application. Fill the tank 2/3 full with water and, while stirring, add the components sequentially, waiting until the previous component is thoroughly mixed.

Warning. Spraying should be carried out in the morning or evening. The optimal air temperature is 10–25°C, with wind speeds up to 5 m/s. Treatment is not recommended under conditions of low or high air temperatures, intense solar radiation, or strong winds.

Compatibility with other agrochemicals

When using Quantum-AquaSil in tank mixtures, pay special attention to water quality and the preparation of the working solution. It is recommended to use Quantum-AquaSil separately from other agrochemicals.

To achieve the best results, we recommend applying the fertilizer in combination with other products according to the application schedules for the respective crop. See the recommended application schedules for “Quantum” fertilizers.
