I still haven't made my mind up about a silica supplement yet...the info my very learned gromie @arty zan posted has me researching stuff...

Why not use potassium silicate? Search for potassium water glass. Costs about 7$/Liter and I use it in it's most concentrated form at 1drop/L.

Hello AFN....today I fed the cabinet ladies, which are 2 x SS BCN Critical XXL and 1 x AFPortal S99V5...all three will be losing their heads in the next couple of days, I have now taken nodes 1+2 from all three...View attachment 1351972View attachment 1351973

It all comes down to "PAS=Plant Available Silica", Plants can't take up Silica, they can however take up —monosilicic acid/orthosilicic acid.
Other types of silicas, such as "potassium silicate", needs bacteria which will convert other silicon compounds, into monosilicic acid/orthosilicic acid.
The conversion process can takes weeks or even months.
By the time the silicon is in a plant available form, it is often too late.
Therefore, growers often apply monosilicic acid/orthosilicic acid because it is instantly available to the plant.

Heeellllooo everyone...cabinet layyyyydeeees got fed and topped today wooo....I think I might have fimmed one of them bcoz(showing my age!)I didn't have my reading glasses on me and I couldn't quite see haha but I think I made an ok job of it...these ladies are starting wk 3 tomorrow and are due a transplanting.... especially the AFPortal S99V5 whom is drooping quite badly, this would be the first sign of her being root-bound.
I was waiting for these signs to arise and as they have just appeared.....it would be a perfect time for the move to my bloom room....I think the V5 is a couple of days older than the SS BCN Critical XXL ...

I love that you are doing research, that makes me immensely happy. Furthering your grow knowledge and digging deep for info, is all to your credit.
I have read through the article and "I do have some comments to make" and some points to point out.
Please bare with me as I'm busy right now (eating food) but I just wanted to quickly reply!
It may be better to start a thread on the subject, rather than us filling Vapo's thread.
Link me in if you do.
