4 professional growing products Resilience is Sun Gro s brand name for patented growing mixes enriched with silicon. NOW AVAILABLE in select Sun Gro Sunshine, Fafard and Metro-Mix products. Plants grown with Silicon (Si) as part of the mix have: thicker, stronger stems improved root mass and structure increased drought tolerance, enhanced shelf life-less shrinkage resistance to insects and diseases** dense, compact space-saving plants reduced need for plant growth regulators - saving chemical cost increased tolerance to ph drift * Sun Gro patent protected 2014 Sun Gro Horticulture Canada Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Fafard, Sunshine and Sun Gro are registered trademarks of Sun Gro Horticulture Canada Ltd. Metro-Mix is a registered trademark of Horticulture Brands Limited Partnership. Used under license. ** University researchers have shown increased disease resistance in plants when silicon is added to growing media. Our Expertise is Growing
5 Our Expertise is Growing How do RESILIENCE mixes work: Once taken up by the plant, silicon accumulates in the cell walls and strengthens the plant tissues. This creates stronger plants. Stronger stems often result in compact and sturdier plants. In the plant, silicon polymerizes and turns into a gel, reducing plant water loss. This photo shows the increased stem diameter with silicon (Si) added to the growing medium. Increased stem diameter = stronger plant; reduces breakage. With silicon Without silicon Oklahoma State University Snapdragons grown in Resilience mix have stronger stems and toned, upright growth. Stronger stems. Sun Gro Discovery Center, April 2014 Salvia grown in Resilience mix shows delayed wilt with increased shelf life. Increases shelf life.
