Terra Aquatica Silicate 5l
Terra Aquatica Silicate 5 litre is the professional-grade tub of the pH-neutral mineral additive in powder form based on natural silicic acid clay and biologically transformed organic matter — formerly known as GHE Mineral Magic. It delivers soluble silicon that hardens cell walls and builds a natural shield against disease, fungi and insect attack. Natural colloids improve cation exchange capacity and increase nutrient availability. Stabilises pH and EC, protects against heavy metal toxicity and contains over 60 minerals plus calcium and additional carbonates. Dosage 4 grams per 10 litres of water. The 5 litre tub offers the lowest cost-per-volume in the range and covers multiple seasons of professional cultivation across all substrates.
Terra Aquatica Silicate 5L – Professional-grade supply of natural silicon protection
For professional growers who structurally incorporate silicon into their protocol, the 5 litre tub of Terra Aquatica Silicate — formerly GHE Mineral Magic — delivers the lowest cost-per-volume in the Terra Aquatica range and sustained supply covering multiple growing seasons, even for large-scale operations.
Silicon: the missing element in substrate growing
In nature, plants absorb silicon from the soil, but in hydroponic and substrate growing this crucial element is often absent. Silicate fills that gap with a pH-neutral powder from ancient geological deposits delivering soluble silicon, 60+ minerals and additional calcium:
- Hardened cell wall shield: soluble silicon builds a physical barrier within plant cells against pathogens and insects.
- Nutrient efficiency: natural colloids increase cation exchange capacity and improve availability of all nutrients.
- pH and EC stabilisation: carbonates maintain stable nutrient solution chemistry during extended reservoir use.
- Stronger plant structure: thicker stems and branches that support the weight of heavier flowers and fruits.
Yield from the 5 litre tub
At a dosage of 4 grams per 10 litres of water, the 5L tub lasts exceptionally long. Three application methods:
- Nutrient solution: 4 g per 10 L of water with each feed.
- Direct substrate application: 1 teaspoon (±4 g) per plant at the base.
- Foliar spray: 4 g per 10 L of water, or 10-50 g per m² as dry powder directly on foliage.
Use throughout the entire cycle. Pair with FloraGro and FloraBloom for a complete professional protocol.
The investment for serious growers
The 5L tub delivers a substantially lower cost-per-volume compared to the 1L format. With the low dosage of just 4 grams per 10 litres, a single tub covers months or even seasons of intensive cultivation. For professional operations with multiple grow spaces, this is the most economical and practical format.

How long does the 5 litre tub last?
With the low dosage of 4 grams per 10 litres of water, the 5L tub lasts exceptionally long. Exact usage depends on your application method and number of plants, but for most growers a single tub covers multiple complete growing seasons.
Can I combine Silicate with Trikologic?
Yes, but with an important caveat. When combining with Trikologic or other beneficial microorganisms, apply Silicate as a foliar spray or localised at the stem only, not in the substrate. This prevents slowing the establishment of beneficial microbial populations. In open soil, Silicate naturally stimulates beneficial microorganism growth.
Should I mix Silicate separately from my base nutrients?
It is advisable to dissolve Silicate separately before adding it to your nutrient solution. Avoid mixing directly with concentrated calcium or phosphorus solutions as this can cause precipitation. Add it to your reservoir and mix thoroughly.
Is Silicate suitable for outdoor growing?
Yes, in open soil Silicate works particularly well. It stimulates the growth of beneficial microorganisms and helps create a healthy natural growing environment. The silicon protection of cell walls is also valuable outdoors against weather variations and pest pressure.
