Description
Athena Balance is a simple formula of potassium silicate specifically concentrated to buffer irrigation water and stabilize to ideal pH. Silicon additionally benefits plant growth, stem structure, stress reduction, water usage (osmoregulation), and nutrient utilization.
Commercial growers find better results, particularly with reverse osmosis (RO) water, when buffering first with Athena Balance. Pure RO water has an unstable chemical structure that can trap other nutrients when added without a buffer. Athena Balance adds just enough to the water to create a more homogenous fertilizer solution and reduce the need to pH adjust after mixing.
Formula is sediment free and is compatible with mechanical dosing systems (Dosatron). Athena Balance is not recommended for electronic dosing systems (Netafim).
Product Features
Irrigation - Compatible with all dosing and irrigation systems.
Solubility - 100% soluble, no residue, will not clog emitters.
Stability - Once mixed, pH will remain stable in solution.
Filtration - Two-stage filter with 1 micron mesh to remove all particulates and contaminants.
Best Practices
| Mixing | Do not combine fertilizers in concentrate form, always dilute in water. |
| Measuring | Carefully measure using clean instruments. Never put anything into the bottle. |
| Water | Compatible with all water sources, ideal with reverse osmosis (RO). |
| Storage | Store closed in original packaging at a temperature between 7° C and 29° C. |
| Diagnostics | Extreme heat or cold can affect solubility. If you see crystallization or sediment, shake well to redissolve. If the problem continues, contact Athena Support for a replacement. |
Application Instructions
| Rate | Use as pH up. |
