Grow Genius 40% Mono-Silicic Acid Highly concentrated, immediately plant-available silicon — without the high pH and mixing headaches commonly associated with traditional silica supplements. Grow Genius 40% Mono-Silicic Acid is a highly concentrated source of stabilized mono-silicic acid (MSA), the form of silicon plants can readily absorb and use. Unlike traditional potassium silicate products, Grow Genius delivers plant-available silicon directly in a pH-neutral, reservoir-stable formula. At a root-feed rate of just 0.1 mL per gallon, it provides an efficient way to support stronger plant structure, vigorous growth, improved stress tolerance, and overall plant health throughout the growing cycle. Why Mono-Silicic Acid? Silicon is commonly used by growers to help plants develop stronger, more resilient tissues. Once absorbed, silicon can become incorporated into plant structures, helping reinforce stems, leaves, and other tissues as the plant grows. Grow Genius supplies silicon as stabilized mono-silicic acid rather than relying on silicates that must first convert into a plant-available form. Consistent silicon supplementation can help support: Stronger plant structure — supporting sturdy stems, branches, and leaves Healthy, vigorous growth — throughout vegetative and reproductive development Improved stress tolerance — including heat, water stress, wind, and physical damage Natural plant defenses — helping plants remain resilient when faced with environmental and biological stress Yield potential — by supporting healthy plant development throughout the growing cycle What Makes Grow Genius Different? Many products marketed as silica supplements use potassium silicate. While potassium silicate can provide silicon, it is highly alkaline and requires conversion before the silicon becomes available to the plant. Grow Genius takes a different approach. Its stabilized formula provides 40% mono-silicic acid by weight in a form that is already plant available. 40% mono-silicic acid (w/w) Immediately plant-available silicon pH-neutral formula Reservoir stable for up to 7 days Compatible with virtually any nutrient program Extremely low application rate Suitable for both root feeding and foliar application Compatible with mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria at recommended rates Readily biodegradable An Ideal Silicon Supplement for AutoPot Systems Grow Genius is particularly well suited for AutoPot watering systems and other reservoir-fed irrigation systems. Traditional potassium silicate products can significantly raise solution pH and may require special consideration during nutrient mixing. Grow Genius uses a pH-neutral stabilization system and remains stable in a reservoir for up to 7 days, making it easy to incorporate into an AutoPot feeding program. There is also no requirement to add Grow Genius first. It can be added before or after your base nutrients, although adding it last can help minimize foaming when using RO or very soft water. For AutoPot growers, simply add the appropriate dose to the reservoir and allow the system to deliver it through normal irrigation. How to Use Grow Genius Mono-Silicic Acid Root Feed / Reservoir Application For plant strength, vigorous growth, yield potential, and improved stress tolerance: Mix at 0.1 mL per gallon of water or nutrient solution. Apply approximately once per week. Use from seed germination or cutting propagation until a few weeks before harvest. Grow Genius is extremely concentrated, so accurate measurement matters. Each bottle includes a 1 mL dosing syringe to make measuring small application rates simple and repeatable. Foliar Application Grow Genius can also be applied as a foliar spray, providing another way to deliver mono-silicic acid directly to growing plant tissue. Mix at 2 mL per gallon (0.5 mL/L) of water. Apply approximately every two weeks. Use from germination or propagation until flowering conditions make foliar spraying undesirable. Do not spray under full-intensity grow lights, in strong direct sunlight, or at temperatures above 86°F. Stop foliar applications during early flowering on species that develop dense or compact flowers, particularly indoors or in cool, humid conditions. A Little Goes a Very Long Way At only 0.1 mL per gallon for root feeding, Grow Genius treats a substantial volume of water with a very small amount of concentrate. 100 mL: up to 880 gallons of root-feed solution / 53 gallons of foliar spray 250 mL: up to 2,201 gallons of root-feed solution / 132 gallons of foliar spray 500 mL: up to 4,402 gallons of root-feed solution / 264 gallons of foliar spray 1 Liter: up to 8,895 gallons of root-feed solution / 528 gallons of foliar spray Compatible With Living Soil & Beneficial Microbes Grow Genius Mono-Silicic Acid is not a registered organic product. However, at the recommended application rates, it is compatible with mycorrhizae, beneficial bacteria, and biologically active growing methods. Because the formula is so concentrated, the actual amount of product introduced into the root zone is extremely small — approximately 0.03 mL per liter at the recommended root-feed concentration. Highly Concentrated by Design Grow Genius is formulated to deliver plant-available silicon at an exceptionally low application rate. Using less concentrate to treat more water means less product, packaging, weight, and shipping volume per gallon of finished solution. Ultra-concentrated: a small amount treats hundreds or thousands of gallons Efficient: plant-available silicon at very low application rates Readily biodegradable: 95% biodegradation over 28 days using OECD Test Guideline 301F Storage & Handling Grow Genius is highly concentrated down to the drop. Watch this quick video on best practices for opening and closing the bottle. Grow Genius is water-activated, so proper storage and handling are important. Keep the bottle tightly sealed and do not allow water, moisture, or dirt to enter the concentrate. Contact with water can cause the product to re-polymerize. Always use the included dosing syringe or another clean, dry measuring device, and close the bottle immediately after use. Store in a cool, dry location and follow all handling and safety instructions provided on the product label.
