Well only cause I heard it from the bayou!!!! I will give it a try. Then I will retrack if it perfroms like advertised............ Much love @Power OG :pGet your sample bro it will last youba year for 9 bucks and its still cheaper than aptus fasciltator. The shit works bro, noticeable difference.
On your website it says 8 ounces of osa makes 400 gallons...@ 90 bucks a bottle that comes out to .22 cents a gallon.
250 ml (8.4 oz) of fasilitor costs $250, and is concentrated enough to make 2500 gallons mixed, coming in at .10 cents a gallon.
I've seen your lab results and they state that you have more available silicon in your product than all the others. Ironically every product you listed, for being so similar in their Si content, have entirely different usage rates (2ml/gal for vitalize, .5 ml/5 gal for fasilitor, .5ml/gal for OSA). How is their any claim to your product being ("way") more concentrated or cheaper? And how is there any legitimacy to silica products that are all basically the same thing, but require completely different usage rates?
OSA hooked me up with the quickness.. And that was before they popped up on the farm, so I really appreciate the opportunity to try out their product.. I also like how their popping up all over the place willing to answer questions. Good or bad.. I just hope the people that get freebies follow through with good side by sides so growers can decide if they want to add it to their gardens. I think @MakinGoo & @Power OG are some of the best at testing products.I have deleted 2 posts in this thread so far.....people this is thcfarmer trolls are not welcome here.
if you think osa28 is expensive then dont buy it...and dont post here complaining...osa28 have been giving out 100s of sample bottles out for the past 2 months they are good people :)
what in the world makes this silicic acid so expensive? is it difficult to produce, or is it naturally occuring, and difficult to find? I believe it helps and adds yields and strength, but can anyone tell us from a scientific perspcetive as to why it costs over 1000 dollars for a small bottle? Id rather not do research myself if a fellow farmer can explain the price tag?
Also wehat else does it do besides helping with heat stress, increasing yields by a few grams a plant, and costing an arm and a leg?
You know what...I was reading the label on the osa bottle and it says potasium silicate on yhe back. Hmmm confusing.
.
Im going to read more into this but seems that all "cheap" silicas are actually stabilized orthosilic acids and can be labed as such.
Nutrient company's are taking lessons from big biz on labeling strategies. Taking something and renaming it something else to say its better and different
That's the thing. It is a potassium silicate. And it's exactly like every other potassium silicate out there. Chemically speaking, there is in no way shape or form that one Si , four oxygen and 4 hydrogen would act any differently if it were in an aptus bottle, a protekt bottle, a osa bottle, or a Flintstones vitamins bottle
Yea they (aptus) start with potassium silicate. Though the patent (for aptus) is entirely focused on how to create and stabilize the Si into a micro-colloidal state; which they ascribe as the key for availability. So, the value with the product is more about it's "method of delivery" (if you will) and availability as opposed to the specific ingredients used.
(older post after reading patent in another thread: https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/aptus-test.69913/page-8#post-1431327)
I suppose the K value, for the rate being added, is pretty insignificant with this type of Si too. Whereas it comprises a "decent" amount of other Si additives. just hope to help
@osa28 you said you were a hydro owner? I'm assuming you own hydro stores? What is your favorite nute line to sell (other than osa28 :p)? Is it the same line you use?
Also, any chance of there being a full osa28 line?
I love the slogan btw "a Ferrari for the price of a Benz"
You're talking a chemical nutrient company...out of Rhode Island?
That itself makes me question...
That's what I hoped you'd say! I'll be placing an order with hydroponic research and osa28 next weekCheck out veg+bloom. We have some other products in the works also... Stay tuned!

We called the lab who did the report. They didnt test for Silicic acid! We encourage everyone to call Thornton labs in FL and speak with Steve Fickett. This OSA28 is BS and thats sure to come out in the near future. Donny from tru bloomz is robbing growers again, not there grow rooms this time but their hard earned cash dang!..... his puppet Rob from Aptus who got fired for stealing shit. Whats this industry coming too.
