Diahydro
Diahydro (Diatomaceous Earth) consists of the fossilised shells of algae (diatoms) that lived millions of years ago.
Diahydro is produced from natural diatomaceous earth of a fresh-water source. Products containing saltwater diatomite can contain high levels of impurities which significantly reduce the positive characteristics of diatomaceous earth, by clogging the diatoms and reducing absorbency potential.
Diatomite is extremely high in silica (84-97%), an essential component for the growth of plants and strengthening of cell walls.
Diatoms have an extremely porous structure and have a very large surface area, therefore they can absorb more than their own weight in water which is gradually released to plants.
Place your plants in pure Diahydro diatomaceous earth with a water reservoir beneath. Through the amazing capilliary action exhibited by this nutrient rich medium, water is drawn up and distributed as evenly as needed.
