Provides Silicon
Contains 0.5% Monosilicic Acid that helps provide strength and flexibility to plants
Suitable for Indoor & Outdoor Cultivation
Completely compatible with most fertilizers and agricultural inputs with multiple ways to use – Foliar, Nutrient Tank Mix, Root Drench
No animal-based ingredients
Mikro M.D. is derived from the highest quality ingredients, with all production and formulation done in-house. NO animal based ingredients are used in any step of the process
Potent Formulation
Supplies Zinc, Boron, Molybdenum, along with plant extracts to help maximize growth to genetic potential of your plants
No PGRs
Results of a strong tight flower/fruit without any PGRs. Unique formulation that helps tighten inter-node spacing and reducing air pockets in flowers.
pH neutral
Mikro M.D.’s pH of 2 allows addition without worry of increasing pH like other potassium silicates on the market.
What our customers say
Mikro M.D. helped save my garden! I love Dirt M.D. and have been an early adopter of Mikro M.D.. We used it from the start in this garden in Southern Oregon all of last season. The plants were doing great with a lot of exotic strains, however we had a hail-storm hit in early August that stripped most of our plants. Having used Mikro M.D., we found branches and stalks to be still resilient to the damage and the plants were able to bounce back. Will always use it for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.

Mikro M.D. has really helped improve the general growth of my plants. Check out the strong growth on my plants within a week of incorporating Mikro M.D. into the feeding regimen.

Mikro M.D. has been a great addition to our program. Helps not only strengthen the plants and improve growth, but have found a great hidden benefit. Mikro M.D. has been found to help improving pollen formation in male plants, allowing us to pollinate multiple females with an undersized male in shorter duration than ever before. This item will always be in our tool box!
Mikro M.D. amps everything including roots! It is a game-changer, won’t be growing without it
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need Monosilicic Acid compared to Potassium Silicate?
Plants absorb silicon only in one form – monosilicic acid. The potassium silicate molecule does not automatically absorb into the plant. It is broken down by micro-organisms in the soil to the monosilicic form before absorption by the roots. Mikro M.D. contains the bioavailable form of silicon that is expensive to make and stabilize.
Easiest analogy between the two is ingesting something through one’s mouth as food that is then broken down into sugars like glucose, fructose, amino acids etc compared to taking a shot of vitamins or amino-acids. One works much faster compared to the other and is also more expensive, but used in less quantity.
Why is there urea in Mikro M.D.?
Yes, Mikro M.D. does contain urea (CO(CH2)2) but it is being used for a very specific purpose. Urea molecules have an unique property to form lattice like structures (clathrate) that allow them to trap or contain other molecules in their center. This property allows use to use the urea molecules to pack-in mono-silicic acid molecules along with all the other additives in Mikro M.D.
Why does Mikro M.D. foam so much?
Mikro M.D. not only contains monosilicic acid but also has multiple other items (micronutrients, plant extracts) added to give you a well-rounded product. To ensure the silicicic molecules are adequately separated within the formulation, a lot of surfactants are added. These items tend to foam up when agitated or aerated.
A simple trick to keep the product manageable is to either dilute out Mikro M.D. the night before use (add to half the water quantity and let the foam settle) or add a de-foamer to help reduce the surface tension of the liquid in the tank allowing for easy mixing with little to no foaming.
Can I use Mikro M.D. during flowering?
Yes! The nitrogen in the ingredient list should not stop you from using Mikro M.D. during bloom. Ideally you increase the rate of use to 1mL/gallon as a root drench during the first two weeks of flower to allow hardening of flowers and reduction in inter-node spacing.
Reduce the rate by 1/2 in last 2 weeks and completely STOP during flushing.
Can I mix Mikro M.D. with Dirt M.D.?
Yes but if done in a specific fashion. Add Mikro M.D. to water and dilute it out before you apply Dirt M.D. to the same tank. Do not store solution, use immediately. Never mix concentrate solutions.
What is the best way to use Mikro M.D.?
Mikro M.D. is formulated to be used in a multiple fashion of ways. Monosilicic acid and the chelated micronutrients present are plant available through foliage and their roots so it is more to user preference.
Our recommendation is a mixture of both foliar and root drench alternating between weeks.
If running a hydroponic setup, a root drench is the most economical option with the rates being extremely low so always consider that 🙂
