AgrowSil is a calcium silicate soil conditioner that helps to manage and correct problems associated with acidic soils, boosting the natural ability of plants to increase yield and improve crop quality.
No. AgrowSil is an alternative to AgLime and can be superior to it in many ways. AgLime, which is calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and AgrowSil, which is calcium silicate (CaSiO3), both work to eliminate acidic soils; however, AgrowSil does so faster and more efficiently, with the added benefit of the silicon.
Silicon is a naturally occurring mineral and an essential plant nutrient that functions in both plants and the soil. In the soil, silica attaches to soil colloids, helping to reduce compaction and making tied-up nutrients more available.
AgrowSil is not a mined product. Its parent material is a stainless steel furnace slag that undergoes proprietary aging processes, fine grind pulverizing, and extensive metal separation, which removes more than 99.95% of all metals.
No. AgrowSil is analyzed weekly for its liming value, nutrients, and toxic metals.
AgrowSil is available as a finely ground material in bulk.
AgrowSil is applied in the same manner as wet agricultural limestone, with a wet lime spreader.
