Natural Kaolin Clay 1kg for Plant Sun Protection
Natural kaolin clay is a fine mineral powder that forms a breathable coating on plant surfaces. Once mixed with water and sprayed onto foliage, the pale mineral layer helps reflect excess sunlight and reduce the impact of high temperatures on plants. This 1 kg tub makes approximately 20 to 40 litres of spray solution and covers approximately 150m², depending on application and plant coverage. Suitable for ornamental plants and a wide range of garden plants when used as directed. How Natural Kaolin Clay Helps Plants in Hot Weather The mineral coating reflects a proportion of incoming sunlight from plant surfaces, helping plants cope with intense sun exposure and periods of high temperature. Once dry, the spray leaves a visible pale coating while remaining breathable on the plant surface. This makes it particularly useful during sunny, hot and challenging growing conditions. Benefits of Kaolin Mineral Plant Spray Helps reflect excess sunlight from plant surfaces Helps reduce the impact of intense sun exposure Supports plant vigour during periods of high temperature Helps minimise environmental stress in challenging growing conditions Creates a breathable mineral coating on sprayed foliage Supports plants exposed to prolonged hot weather Applying Kaolin Clay Powder to Garden Plants Mix approximately 50 g of powder per litre of clean water and agitate thoroughly to create a smooth suspension. Apply using a suitable garden sprayer, covering the required plant surfaces with a thin, even film. Continue to agitate the mixture during spraying to keep the mineral particles suspended. Reapply after rainfall or heavy watering if the coating has been washed away. Avoid excessive application, as only a light coating is required.

Apply before periods of intense sunlight or high temperatures so the mineral coating is already present when plants encounter hotter conditions. Will kaolin clay leave a white coating on leaves? Yes. A pale or white mineral film will be visible after the spray dries. This is a normal result of the mineral particles remaining on the plant surface. Do I need to clean my sprayer after applying kaolin clay? Yes. Rinse the sprayer, nozzle and other equipment thoroughly with clean water after application to remove remaining mineral particles and reduce the chance of blockages. Can I prepare less than one litre of kaolin clay spray? Yes. Smaller quantities can be prepared by reducing the amount of powder and water proportionally while maintaining the recommended mixing ratio. How should unused kaolin clay be stored? Keep the container closed and store the powder in a cool, well ventilated location away from children. Keep the contents dry until they are required for mixing.
