into ground water. Non-toxic. Safe to aquatic animals and plant-life.
A comprehensive
natural source of soil minerals & trace elements
A unique
soil conditioning
and
growing media additive to promote optimal utilisation of soil
and media fertility.
A regenerative
agent to depleted soils and growing media
What
does it do?
· Improves
cuticle strength of plants. [silicon]Stabilises Fast Nitrogen
Growth
Restores
soil mineral balance
Promotes
phosphorus availability
Enhances
internal & external quality of produce, tubers, fruit,
cereals and flowers during both growth & post-harvest
Enhances
effectiveness of fertilisers
Promotes
even, continuous growth
Promotes
disease resistance and less fungicide use
Promotes
root development
Improves
crop yields
Simalith
restores natural soil capacities which can then provide soil and
vegetation with the necessary decomposable minerals for regeneration.
Simalith
has a quick acting and long lasting effect.

Application
Rates : Basic
Guidelines
Application
timings are most suitable in late Autumn to Spring
1] Open Ground use
-
Capital Dressing 1
tonne per hectare (100gr.per Sq M)
Rates of up
to 3 tonne/ha can be used when fully incorporated into 30cm soil
depth
Annual Top Dressing
- Open ground 600 kg per hectare (60 gr.per Sq M) & up
to 1.5t/ha p.a.
(Replenishments) or
as advised according to soil analysis
2] Greenhouse Soils
- 200 gr per m2 as initial application.
Replenishments
of 60 - 150gr between each crop and subject to soil analysis.
3] Domestic Garden
Soils - 200grams per m2 worked into soil.
Top
dressings of 100gr per m2
4] Compost manufacturing
- add minimum 2kg per m3 to accelerate composting activity.
5] Growing Media
-
Seed Raising &
Propagating Media 2 -3 kg per m3
Potting Mixes &
Composts 2 - 5 kg per m3
Side dressing 2
- 5 gr per pot litre
Dusting
Dusting
with Simalith during crop cultivation is a recommended practice.
Simalith is safe to foliage & flowers. Recommended rates are
@ 300 - 500 grams per 100m2 of foliage area.
Best
time of application is early morning when there is dew on the
foliage.
Spraying
Spraying
may used to further benefit crop performance in general or be
used
to rapidly
correct nutritional imbalances and to control crop ‘bolting’.
(Agitating
Membrane Pumps Only) @ 750gr. - 1kg per 100L water
Cereals: 2 - 3 applications
by spraying can be effective to prevent crop bolting.
@ 750gr. per 100L
water
Packed in 25kg multi
wall paper bags
