Calcium Silicate is formulated in two granular forms, mini-prill for greens applications (SGN number less than 100) and maxi-prill for tees, fairways, fair, fairroughs and lawns (SGN number less than 250) for ease of application. It is also available in regular grade for fairway and athletic field applications. This agronomic tools contains 31 % silicon, 22% calcium, 3% magnesium, and 6% sulfur and is as effective as dolomite for raising pH and as effective as gypsum for lowering salt levels. It is non-burning and completely safe on all turf grasses.

Research at the University of Florida has shown Bermuda grass to be an active accumulator of silicon. Application rates are one ton per acre to actively raise pH and also raise the silicon levels to 50 pounds per acre in soil tests and 0.8 to 1.2% in tissue tests to reach the proper silicon levels to get the "silicon effect". Suggested application time is in spring for Bermuda grass protection and again in fall to aid in cool season grass protection. Silicon enters the plant and forms what scientists call a "double layer" of protection behind the cuticle. Not only does the plant have the cuticle but also a second layer of silicon that provides added protection to many stresses.
