@iceman2494 and everyone else, in reference to the specific ratio between Si and Ca.

From that LinkedIn article I posted before.

"Even if a grower is adding a silica supplement (not in silicic acid form), virtually all of the silica remains in the growing medium until it is converted, which can take many weeks to months for any meaningful conversion."

This is referring to soil but it's a good indicator that silica needs to be available to the plant right from the get go if calcium is going to be able to take advantage of it throughout the grow.

After a bit of reading and understanding/remembering that calcium is rarely, if ever a toxicity problem, I don't think we need to worry about there being something bad about having a lot of Ca available to plant. I think the part to pay attention to is having the right amount of the right kind of silica available to cause the plant to take optimal advantage of the available Ca and all of the other nutes it helps to increase uptake into the plant.

My research today says to use potassium silicate. As you'll read in this article, we don't want additional salts or any heavy metals from our addition of silicate.

"Botanicare’s Silica Blast, which contains sodium silicate, potash and potassium silicate.

Note also that Botanicare is now owned by Scotts Miracle-Gro, so it’s best to avoid all Botanicare products.

You already know why any product with sodium silicate is not good for your medical marijuana plants– too much salt."

I'm glad I found this because I was leaning toward Silica Blast. What we want to use is Advanced Nutrients, Rhino Skin.

It can also be used as a foliar spray.

"Foliar spraying potassium silicate is a preventive against powdery mildew, mites, thrips, aphids, heat, gray mold and other stress that attacks your plants from the outside."

Thanks for the heads up . I and probably a few more of us use silica blast.

Still wondering why I gotta verify the banks the breeder are telling me to buy from are selling legit seeds?

Call it what you want but I have valid back end. I bought from a site dude questioning us linked me to from ethos website. Why should I have to double check they promise they’re real? Lol

 

[Moabfighter]

buy from a Tesla dealer......

Bruhh....: you sure this is a LEGIT tesla?!

 

[Smokexbreak]

Too soon lol?

Nah right on time actually. Lmfao. Needed to move on.

 

[StickyBudHound]

Well.... Fuck.... lol

Lol, it's kind of a rabbit hole. A good puzzle to work out.

 

[schmebulock]

ok good we all happy

 

[iceman2494]

This is y we stuck together so long . Shit talk and know it’s all good . Just how I do with my friends.

If you don’t understand then it’s not worth explaining.

Cool story though bro!

 

[Moabfighter]

Hell smoke ain’t gonna help me now. Watch.

Idc if it was you iceman or Clyde or anyone. I bought from a site that ethos told me to buy from. If they’re not legit, that’s ethos fault. They told me who to go to.

Waiting on you to explain why. I gotta question who ethos told me to buy from. M
Waiting.

Shit man the more you know the more you know. Shit gets easier with knowledge.

 

[Moabfighter]

If I don’t understand. Then it isn’t worth explaining?

How shallow is that shit lmao. Damn. Peace fuck this stupid shit. I’m right here. Shouldn’t have to question the people the boss told me to buy from. Period.

Only thing I didn't like was the Ca toxicity.

It's not that it will create a toxicity, but it will cock block other elements into lockout in excess.

The silicate part was interesting, but they made it out as if the potassium silicate is what reduces pests, stress, etc. It's actually largely just the potassium, not that silica doesn't do wonders. That's why you'll hear of old growers rubbing banana peels on their leaves.

Just my thoughts.

 

[StickyBudHound]

Shit man the more you know the more you know. Shit gets easier with knowledge.

It's a huge frickin picture to wrap your head around if you don't come from a botanical background. Each little piece brings it more into focus. I love this shit! Shows me there's still a lot of potential for improvements.

What we gonna do tomorrow when ethos emails back and says every single one of them is legit?

Sorry Moab maybe you were right on trusting the handful of sites ethos linked you to? Because that’s what’s gonna happen.

Just wondering how I’m being made out to look like the dick.

Sorry.

I was confident in ethos retailers that you yourself linked me to smoke.

 

[Moabfighter]

I’m not backing off. You guys are my BEST friends.

What did I do wrong. Where did I pick bad judgement?

Please tell me.
