Description
Description
Athena Balance offers a straightforward formula concentrated with potassium silicate, meticulously designed to buffer irrigation water and stabilize it to the ideal pH level. Silicon, a key component in this formulation, further enhances plant growth, reinforces stem structure, reduces stress, regulates water usage (osmoregulation), and optimizes nutrient utilization.
Commercial growers, particularly those utilizing reverse osmosis (RO) water, report improved outcomes by initially buffering with Athena Balance. Pure RO water possesses an unstable chemical structure that can trap other nutrients without a buffer upon addition. Athena Balance introduces just the right amount to the water, resulting in a more uniform fertilizer solution and reducing the need for pH adjustment after mixing.
Our formula is sediment-free and seamlessly integrates with mechanical dosing systems such as Dosatron. However, it is not recommended for use with electronic dosing systems like Netafim.
Key Features
Potassium Silicate Enrichment
- Concentrated Formula: Athena Balance is packed with potassium silicate, a critical compound that stabilizes pH levels and fortifies plant structure. Potassium silicate strengthens cell walls, producing more robust stems and excellent environmental stress resistance.
- Silicon Benefits: The silicon provided by potassium silicate enhances plant growth by improving nutrient uptake, regulating water usage (osmoregulation), and boosting overall plant health. This leads to more vigorous growth and higher yields.
pH Stabilization
- Optimal pH Buffering: Athena Balance is specifically designed to buffer and stabilize the pH of your irrigation water, which is particularly beneficial for growers using reverse osmosis (RO) water, which can be chemically unstable. Athena Balance ensures a consistent and uniform fertilizer solution by introducing a stable buffer, reducing the need for frequent pH adjustments.
- Enhanced Nutrient Uptake: A stable pH level in your solution ensures that essential nutrients remain available to plants, leading to more efficient nutrient absorption and usage.
Commercial-Grade Performance
- Ideal for Commercial Growers: Athena Balance is particularly effective for commercial operations, especially those using RO water. Its ability to stabilize and buffer water before nutrient addition results in more predictable and reliable results across large-scale grows.
- Sediment-Free Formula: The sediment-free nature of Athena Balance ensures that it integrates seamlessly with mechanical dosing systems, such as Dosatron, without clogging or causing issues. However, it is not recommended for use with electronic dosing systems like Netafim.
Benefits
- Stable pH Levels: Ensures that irrigation water maintains the ideal pH level, leading to consistent nutrient availability and absorption.
- More robust Plants: The potassium silicate in Athena Balance strengthens plant structure, leading to more resilient plants that can better withstand environmental stresses.
- Improved Growth and Yields: Enhanced nutrient utilization and silicon supplementation contribute to more vigorous growth and increased yields.
- Efficient Integration: The sediment-free formula is compatible with most mechanical dosing systems, ensuring easy and trouble-free application.
Application Instructions
- Mixing: Shake well before use. Add Athena Balance to your irrigation water at the recommended rate of 0.5-1 ml per liter before adding nutrients. This will help buffer the water and stabilize the pH level.
- Application: Use Athena Balance with every watering to ensure consistent pH levels and optimal nutrient uptake. It is especially beneficial for growers using RO water.
- Compatibility: Suitable for use with mechanical dosing systems like Dosatron. It is not recommended for use with electronic dosing systems such as Netafim.
Final Words
Athena Balance pH is essential for growers who want to maintain a stable and optimal pH level in their irrigation water. By providing a concentrated source of potassium silicate, Athena Balance not only buffers and stabilizes pH but also enhances plant structure, reduces stress, and improves overall nutrient utilization.
Whether managing a small-scale grow or a large commercial operation, Athena Balance ensures that your plants have the ideal environment for growth and productivity.
