Plant Superfood Oliver Knott - Strength - Palagonite

Palagonite is a volcanic mineral substance created by a rare and unique event, in which hot basalt lava flowed into a freshwater lake in Queensland, Australia, around 20 million years ago.

Palagonisation began as the molten lava was quenched, forming a rind or coating of volcanic glass that over time has devitrified from glass into palagonite material. Extremely rare, it is found in Australia, Iceland and on the planet Mars.

Palagonite's rich and comprehensive suite of essential nutrients includes Silicon, Iron, Manganese, Magnesium, Calcium, Sodium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Carbon, Nitrogen, Cobalt, Nickel, Zinc, Molybdenum and Selenium, making it the perfect base product for natural plant health.

• Essential silicon for robust cell leaf structure
• Improves photosynthesis and stem strength
• Unique earth mineral enriching plant growth

Directions

New Tank: Sprinkle Palagonite evenly into a thin layer over the bottom of aquarium. Any areas intended for planting, build up to double depth. Cover with your substrate of choice, for example river gravel, pebble or sand.

Established Tank: Option for replanting: dig a recess in your substrate and carefully fill with Palagonite and cover. Plant into it.

Option for general mineralisation: Push aside a small area of substrate and place Palagonite. Cover with substrate.

Can also be used in conjunction with Oliver Knott Iron Sand (Colour), Oliver Knott Laterite (Growth) and Oliver Knott Volcanic Ash (Roots) for excellent results.
