Polikrzem Protect

MODE OF ACTION OF POLIKRZEM PROTECT:

POLIKRZEM PROTECT, intended for foliar application, utilises the unique properties of silicon, which accumulates in the plant cell walls, forming a hard, physical barrier impenetrable to pests. This makes chewing and sucking of leaves by insects significantly more difficult. The plant builds an additional external barrier that effectively hinders the penetration of pathogenic pathogens into the tissue interior.

The preparation not only protects but also actively supports the plant's metabolism. It increases chlorophyll concentration, which accelerates the photosynthesis process, and stimulates the formation of a thicker leaf blade. This translates into better water management and nutrient transport. Moreover, when used in mixtures with other biopreparations, it extends their action by up to 30%, significantly enhancing the effectiveness of care treatments.

KEY BENEFITS:

- Mechanical barrier: Strengthening of leaf cell structures.

- Photosynthesis support: More chlorophyll means higher plant productivity.

- Mixture efficiency: Prolongation of the protective preparations' activity time.

Advantages of using POLIKRZEM PROTECT:

• Natural protection: No chemical residues, pure silicon power.
• Versatility: Suitable for use in orchards, vegetable gardens, and agricultural crops.
• Ease of use: The powder dissolves and mixes very well with water.
