Zeolite for plants
Our VEGGIKRAFT product line contains 10 percent zeolite. And that makes a huge difference! The zeolite particles can capture the sun's rays more effectively on the leaves, thus contributing to more active photosynthesis. Herbs and vegetables become more vigorous and resilient. Zeolite supports the plant's self-regulation. In this way, we "feed" our food. What we then eat has more basic energy!
Why zeolite for plants?
It depends on the micronutrients in our food.
I know it's terrible, but organic doesn't necessarily mean that the plants have been "fed" a lot of trace elements, and therefore it doesn't mean they're nourishing us well either. And the more beneficial substances the plant consumes, the more these micronutrients are produced in the plant. Our scientists attribute this to good, very fine zeolite. It contains many minerals and therefore nutrients that the plant needs to produce its best.
STEINKRAFT Zeolite for plants
We at Steinkraft are happy to help. Steinkraft zeolite is ground so finely that it's easily absorbed by the roots and easily utilized by the microorganisms in the soil.
Calcium and zeolite for plants as foliar fertilizer
And yes, our foliar fertilizer is a perfect source of calcium and is so fine that it can be absorbed through the stomata, making it optimally available to the plant. Please spray the plants early, ideally at the 4-leaf stage, so that they are more resilient and vital right from the start.

Why do we recommend applying zeolite and lime together to the leaf? *****
Lime is the nutrient for 90% of all bacteria, all microorganisms, and all vegetation. It's important to use tribomechanically micronized lime. The plant's receptors can absorb it more easily. Crushing the lime makes it the way the plant needs it, so it can absorb it.
Imagine it like this: You can eat a hamburger because your mouth and the hamburger's size roughly match. But if you had a hamburger the size of a football, it wouldn't be possible to eat it. And if it were 1 meter tall, it certainly wouldn't be possible. So: The lime that is sometimes traditionally spread on fields is present in the field, is chemically detectable, but is unavailable to the plants because it's too coarse.
The most important thing is that I reduce the particle size to a size that is accessible to the plant, meaning I need to get below 10 microns. The combination of lime AND zeolite provides optimal conditions for supporting the plant (both on the leaf and within the leaf). The lime can be absorbed through the stomata AND directly through the leaf surface cells.
Another effect: Calcite and zeolite on the leaf surface stimulate microorganisms . These can absorb ammonia from the atmosphere and make it available to the leaves. This is also the reason why the leaves take on a dark green color. They are supplied with nitrogen from natural nitrogen in the atmosphere.
Another effect is mechanical : the silicate particles look like small pieces of glass and do not change, remaining on the leaf surface. And they have a very nice side effect: all insects that have sensory organs in their legs find this unpleasant and will therefore stay away from the plant because it is unpleasant. We have a repellent here through a physical process. And the second effect of the silicate is that some of the particles are so fine that they disrupt and block the respiratory organs of unwanted insects, such as mites and aphids. These insects do not like the silicate because it attacks their gills. We have many insects that find foliar fertilizer a repellent.
Zeolite and lime contain a high concentration of trace elements . It's always important to look for a zeolite quarry that already contains many trace elements. With this complete package, we stimulate the metabolism, activate the body's defenses, and thus boost the immune system, thus keeping diseases and insects at bay and increasing yields.
Summary:
With zeolite and calcium as foliar fertilizer, the plant receives optimal support and nutrition. It should be noted that calcium and zeolite are electrostatically charged due to the tribomechanical milling process and have a grain size of less than 10 microns.
Dr. Peter Ost answered this question precisely. Thank you very much for that.

Mr. Ruhdorfer told me that in two years we'll be shopping with a device that can measure the micronutrients in fruit and vegetables.
Honestly? I'm looking forward to it. It's exactly what I'm after.

In keeping with the belief that "food is medicine," a hospital in Boston is building an organic farm on its roof. This farm supplies patients, staff, and those in need with over 3,000 kg of vegetables per year. We think this is wonderful and makes us happy.
