MontanaGrow is your source for an affordable premium silica derived from volcanic ash. Take the "side by side" test and watch MontanaGrow Power Your Garden. 

MontanaGrow is mined from an ancient deposit of silicon rich, non-crystalline volcanic ash formed by an ancient event that occurred over 30 million years ago. 

MontanaGrow powers your garden by reacting dynamically with other minerals and nutrients to address critical soil and plant deficiencies.

MontanaGrow is comprised of a richamorphous content that contains over 76% SiO2 plus beneficial elements and provides a natural source of plant available silica.

Silicon strengthens plant cell walls, making them tougher and more resistant to damage and abiotic stressors like wind and rain.

It helps plants keep water in their stalks and leaves, reducing heat stress and keeping biotic invaders like viruses and fungi out.

The strength of silicon-fortified leaves and stalks are a deterrent to herbivores, who are less likely to chew through a plant’s tough exterior.

Compost tea is a liquid produced by extracting beneficial microorganisms (microbes)—bacteria, fungi, protozoa, nematodes, and micro arthropods—from compost using a brewing process. A true compost tea contains all of the organisms that were present in the compost before brewing. The brewed water extract should also have soluble nutrients from the compost.

Why is compost tea important?

Compost tea is a good overall plant health booster, healthy plants are better able to resist pests and diseases. Compost tea helps loosen clay soils for air and water to move, and helps sandy soils retain water and nutrients. Plant root growth is stimulated by compost tea applications. Deeper roots retain moisture better and help to reduce runoff. When sprayed onto plants, compost tea adds beneficial microbes to foliage. By occupying leaf surfaces, these organisms prevent potential disease organisms from gaining a foothold.

How can foliar feeding help me?

The big advantage of foliar feeding is that it can address an urgent need within a relatively short time. Foliar feeding is especially efficient as a preventive and in some cases curative treatments. Foliar fertilization offers specific advantages over soil-applied fertilizers, because the nutrients are applied and taken-up directly through the stomata and epidermis, providing a specific and rapid response.

Plants uptake nutrients more efficiently through foliar applications. This means less product is required. That equals huge cost savings.
