99.9% Pure Boric Acid Powder for Hydroponic, Fertigation & Foliar Use
Optibor TG Boric Acid Powder delivers 17.5% boron (B) in a 99.9% pure, technical-grade orthoboric acid (H₃BO₃) — sold in a resealable screw-top jar. The 1 lb size is ideal for home growers, small hydroponic systems, and regular use. Boric acid is one of the most soluble and readily available forms of boron for plant nutrition.
Boron is essential for cell wall integrity, pollen tube germination, sugar transport, and calcium uptake. Deficiency is common in sandy, leached, or high-pH soils and shows up quickly in new growth. Boric acid dissolves cleanly in water with no residue, making it easy to prepare precise stock solutions for hydroponic and fertigation programs.
