Has anyone ever used of Pyrosol?It seems to be similar to Rare Earth but with more beneficial minerals.
Ok I want to understand more myself.. Here is some text I found. -------- Pyrosol contains Pyrophyllitic clay, known to introduce an important buffering capacity to hydroponic nutrient solutions. Also present in the formulation are silicates, and a range of beneficial mineral elements, usually lacking from conventional nutrient formulations, but known to be necessary for healthy produce. Silicates have been implicated in a wide range of beneficial effects on crop plants. These beneficial effects include stress resistance, strength and disease resistance, which promote better nutrient uptake and increased yields. Pyrosol reacts instantly with water to release silicates and other minerals from within a clay structure. No other horticultural product can compare to the unique formulation and action of Pyrosol. Pyrosol added at the recommended rate supplies silicates at levels 10 x more than currently recommended. These are rates at which silicates in solution exert their most dramatic effects. Silicon has been shown to be a major component of soil solutions, and plants grown in soil take up appreciable amounts of this vital nutrient. Pyrosol will not interfere with the solubility of other nutrients in hydroponics. At the maximum recommended dose (1g per litre) Pyrosol will increase CF by 1 unit (0.1mmho) and result in a pH of 5.3. It is compatible with all conventional hydroponic formulations. Pyrosol does not pose a risk to plant health, animals or humans. In fact the silicates in Pyrosol have been shown to overcome the influence of otherwise phytotoxic compounds and minerals in water. Pyrosol does not add any toxic minerals to the hydroponic solution, and there is no concern of elements being supplied in quantities above that found in any mineral soil. The source of pyrophyllitic clay is a volcanic deposit in Nevada USA. The clay structure is such that when formulated as Pyrosol minerals can be released from within the clay molecular plates and transfered into solution. Although some of these minerals may be unfamilliar, it should be pointed out that they are present in a wide range of everyday sources, although many soils are deficient in some of these which are vital for human health. -------- I wonder if this is needed for a biologically active soil? Huh.. Now I'm wondering... What is the benefit on MJ?? Seems like it would add to something we can see, taste or smell.. Randy
Using this ingredient gave me outstanding results.Provides a great amount of beneficial elements for plants to uptake more nutrients with less chances of getting your plants burned which i love, i add a 1/2cup of pyrosol and 1/4 of of Rare Earth to have a great amount of humates and to every 5gallons of soil my soil for a healthy growth.
