Keep a fan on them all the time and there shouldn't be a problem.

How do you use this silica product? How many ml/gallon? Also, do I add it to res first or last after base nutes?

Bottles kind of confusing me. It doesn't say nothing about soil just hydroponics.

I use dyna-gro Protekt. It works great. USED at 1/4 tsp per gallon(always add it first to water) for soil in the first month of veg. If I forget to use it or run out, my stems not as strong.

I just started using Dyna-grow Pro-Tekt a cpl weeks ago and wow! My seedlings went from stretched and flimsy to now thicker then a pencil and they are just about 3 weeks old. I do a foliar 3x a week and use it in my water every other water
