Athena Balance is a concentrated potassium silicate solution designed to buffer irrigation water and stabilise pH levels for optimal nutrient uptake and plant growth. This simple yet powerful formula enhances nutrient availability, strengthens plant structure, and improves stress resistance, making it an essential tool for any grower, especially those using reverse osmosis (RO) water.

Key Features:

• pH Stabilisation: Buffers irrigation water and stabilises pH to ideal levels, preventing fluctuations and ensuring consistent nutrient availability.
• Enhanced Nutrient Uptake: Creates a more homogenous fertiliser solution, promoting efficient nutrient absorption and utilisation by plants.
• Silicon Benefits: Provides a readily available source of silicon, which strengthens stems, improves stress resistance, and enhances water and nutrient utilisation.
• RO Water Compatibility: Especially beneficial for RO water, stabilising its unstable chemical structure and preventing nutrient lockout.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for use in hydroponics, coco coir, and soil, and compatible with mechanical dosing systems.

The Science Behind It:

Athena Balance utilises the properties of potassium silicate to buffer pH and provide essential silicon to your plants. Potassium silicate acts as a pH stabilizer, preventing fluctuations that can hinder nutrient uptake. Silicon, a beneficial element, strengthens cell walls, improves stress resistance, and enhances the plant’s ability to utilise water and nutrients efficiently.

Ideal Use Cases:

• All Growing Media & Systems: Suitable for hydroponics, coco coir, and soil-based cultivation.
• Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water: Highly recommended for stabilising pH and preventing nutrient lockout in RO water systems.
• pH Management: Helps maintain optimal pH levels, reducing the need for frequent adjustments.
• Enhancing Plant Health: Provides silicon to strengthen stems, improve stress resistance, and optimise nutrient utilisation.
• Preventing Deficiencies: Ensures consistent nutrient availability, reducing the risk of deficiencies and promoting healthy growth.

Important Notes:

• Not for Electronic Dosing Systems: Not recommended for use with electronic dosing systems like Netafim.
• Dosage & Monitoring: Monitor pH and EC levels regularly and adjust accordingly based on your crop and growth stage.
