NANO SILVER KILLS PLANT FUNGUS, HELPS TO CREATE HEALTHIER CROPS

Have you ever wondered about using colloidal silver in your garden, to control plant fungus and other infections that can destroy crops, or dramatically limit crop yields?

1. Bigger and Better Crops thanks to colloidal silver

According to the researchers:“We applied different concentrations of nanosilver (10 ppm, 23 ppm, 50 ppm, and 100 ppm) at the base of each plant four times each week for up to four weeks.After five months, the roots of the plants were observed and the dry weight was measured after drying it in the drying machine at 80 degrees.The fresh weight of the harvested green onion was also measured.Both the fresh weight and the dry weight of the treated plants increased. The onions treated with the nanosilver liquid had more weight than the non-treated or controls.”
That’s astonishing, of course, because it means the use of antimicrobial silver actually increased crop weight and therefore crop yield as well.

2. Do the Plants Know How Much Silver They Need?

Finally, the researchers pointed out that the more they increased the use of nanosilver on the green onion plants in order to test what higher levels of silver would do to the plants, the less silver the plants absorbed.The researchers stated:“When the amount of nano-silver was calculated in the plants grown in nano-silver treated soil, it was found that the concentration of nano-silver used for treatment and the concentration of nano-silver found in the plants was inversely proportional.”
In other words, the plants themselves apparently reduce absorption of the silver when high levels are used on them to control the plant blight.This appears to mean the plants only absorbed what they needed for protection and healing, and then stop absorbing the silver after protective levels have been reached.
