PRODUCT DETAILS
Athena Balance is a good product that brings the following benefits:
- Reduces the need for pH adjustment after mixing
- Strengthens plant cells and structure
- Increases nutrient uptake
- Reduces stress
Its particularly effective when using RO (reverse osmosis) water as pure RO water has an unstable chemical structure that can lock out other nutrients when added without any pH buffer. Growers will need to buffer their water first with Athena Balance to create a stable solution to then add other nutrients into.
Suitable for use in soil, coco and hydro, and sediment-free, Athena Balance creates a more homogenous feed solution which reduces the need to pH after mixing.
Potassium silicate is known to increase phosphorus availability, helping to strengthen plants and reduce stress, whilst also helping to reduce the toxic effects of heavy metals such as manganese, iron and aluminium.
How to use:
- For use as a pH up throughout the whole lifecycle of the plant when needed, at a rate of 0.25-1ml per litre of water. Buffer the water first with Athena Balance to create a stable solution before adding other nutrients into the solution.
- Compatible with other fertilizer brands
- Unsuitable for use with Netaflex (or other electronic dosers)
Suitable for use in any growing medium.
Composition: NPK 0-0-2
Soluble potash (K2O) 2% derived from potassium silicate.
Despite the Athena brand being relatively new to the UK market, initial feedback‚ from our customers is very positive, across the whole range. Recommended.
