It's the last thing that gets dosed into the water line. At around 40 ppm.So the protek is potassium silicate.

No fracking near me. Yellowstone county, 17 miles from billings Montana. Hard water is probably an understatement. Plants seem to do fairly good with the waterWow 2000 ppm source water! Was there oil companies fracking near you?
That happened to a buddy of mine out in Colorado.
It absolutely needs to be added first. let it mix well for 20-30min. Then PH down to 6.5 and then add your cal mag and nutrients etc. And last ph down to your desired ppm.It's the last thing that gets dosed into the water line. At around 40 ppm.
It goes in this order......UC roots....5-12-26.....15-0-0....protek.
Should I be adding the protek first?
Still to much light or heat or fans on them. 1 of the 3 or maybe combo. But yup looking better.There doing much better now.
Did you type flu there? Or..Actually my room temperature got to low down to 72. So I just put a heater in there until I can finish installing the heat pump.
I've been sick with flu like symptoms all week and today was the first day in almost a week I've been to check on the plants.
