Description
Dutch Treat White Silica Sand
Dutch Treat White Silica Sand is excellent for the propagation of cuttings and seeds. Silica Sand is quartz that over time, through the work of water and wind, has been broken down into tiny granules. As a soil additive, silica sand improves drainage and loosens the soil. In addition, Silica Sand results in stronger stems that help keep plants sturdy in wind and rain. Furthermore, it results in longer roots help to extract water from the soil while the epidermis of the leaves helps to retain some of the water loss that occurs during transpiration. Therefore,through a controlled release into the soil, silica nanoparticles and their counterparts combine to yield healthier, stronger, bigger plants.
Silica sand is great, not only that it does not have harmful minerals, it has amazing drainage properties. Plants such as Pinguicula, Pygmie Sundew and others that love quick draining or sandy soil will appreciate a layer of sand to grow on. It keeps the algae, fungus, weeds and gnats away.
