i was gonna leave this response alone ,but you did call on me,To be honest , I prefer silica very much. In fact, it depends on the tent environment. silica can help plants resist high temperature. Compared with Indica and sativa, indica require a lower temperature (especially when i am grow in hot summer).
What's more, silica can help me resist a lot of pests caused by too high humidity at flowering . I find that these pests don't bother my plants at all, especially this kind of catastrophe such as White Powdery Mildew .
I've discussed this a lot with aqua man abt silica , and he told me the latest scientific research that silica is more important than calmag. I did an experiment in which I added silica to the nutrient solution of plants, and my roots grew better and thicker than those plants without silica.
i use 5ml/gallon in Veg, 7-8 ml/gallon in bllom,
In this forum, the "bio master" is a kinds of the master of hydroponics. He uses silica more aggressively, 8-10 ml per gallon in Bloom , and the diameter of his axial root system can reach 8-10 cm when harvest.
We tend to focus on leaves and flowers. Actually, relatively speaking, good root development is more important than anything else
The only thing about silica is that it's too expensive to use .. If you can't control the humidity / temperature / it's best to use silicon.
Wow , Interestingi was gonna leave this response alone ,but you did call on me,
so ya ,i call bullshit
aqua is my man knows his shit
but too much emphasis on science for such a simple thing as plants,if only i had the money spent to find ways to get folks to buy bull shit to grow this plant.
im gonna leave it at this,you would be surprised at how well and easy it is to just grow in compost and just be done with all the worlds headaches of cost.
yep you guess it,im one them with you all favorite foriegn name,bro science
that me sounds about as stupid as this karen and woke shit you younger kids seem to love,but hey the shoe fits
no matter the name or the ton of money spent to prove shit,still
call bull shit
about like the sun,this and that light, cant replace it even with all the science ,or the soil cant understand the works unless you live in it and i aint ready for that.
so that said smoke your silica and be happy,im happy smoking shit hahahah

I searched Google for almost 2hours for the taste of silica,LOLbeing you live in a hostile place ,you make do with what you got,im sure you have plenty of young growth of comfrey or stinging nettles,the very best feed imo,but there is alsoi agriculture plants,clip the tops when it is dark out side and ferment them.
there is so many way to skin a cat mate you just got to dig in to find them,by the way i never bashed aqua,he is my bro,but he has his ways and i have mine,if you prefer to use silica ,go hard ,i dont,i have never seen the sky pour silica down on any plant,i have seen it produced from minerals,there for being man made,most every thing we use these days have one form of it or another,but for plant life ,nope.
when i grow coco i use bottle stuff,my ppm never exceed 900 ppm,when i see the first sight of cloudy thric's i start feeding in reverse,by the time i get back to 250 ppm were i started with feed ,it harvest time.i literally turn lights off in tent,leave all fans on as low as i can get them,come back in 7 or 8 days,check the snap on stems,if they ready i then harvest the plants.
so maybe with this method you more understand why i dont use unnessary junk in my feeds.
anyway check into KNF feeds there is no attention to wonder your way when you make stuff in your own home
They look awesome buddy. Keep doing what you are doing and don't overthink it.My plants now in first week of flowering
Ur advice are most welcome.
