How about gracing us with that magic "form" of Silica or other mineral that you know is worth more than $3000/diluted gallon. (these people are selling water cleaning systems based on the claim that Silicic acids are ubiquitous) Normal surface water will inevitably contain Silicates as "Silicic acid" btw. Cannabis is a weak accumulator of Silica and only sees modest improvements with supplementation according to the horticultural research journals that Ive read, and Ive got a Bachelors of Science in Integrated Horticultural Production so its not like I am "just some dumbass" on the subject matter but rather the inverse. The Armor Si is not any where near as obscenely priced, but I seriously doubt your Tomato yield will make the investment worth it. I do not see how your Tomato yields can pay for $3000/gal Fasilitor. If you actually read these links, you will find out how almost free Silicic acid can be had. Add silica last to your working solutions and you should minimize any incompatibility problems. Silicate ferts tend to precipitate silica polymers in concentrated acidic conditions as well as with some salts. There is nothing special about the micro's in the Fasilitor btw. You could use a quadruple effective dosage factor for Fasilitor vs Potassium silicate and the latter still comes out to be more the better choice since it is like a hundred times more cost effective. Over something like week, I doubt there is a difference. The Potassium silicate is bioavailable btw as leaves will become noticeably more leathery and stems very resistant to breaking. Notice the difference in price and how many effective doses you get.įasilitor is most likely just more bioavailable than Potassium silicate in the immediate sense. This will perform the same as any silicate source which includes Fasilitor and ArmorSi. You only need about 5-10ppm dissolved silica. I use either the cheapest or closest source of Potassium silicate available as long as it is only Potassium silicate with no other ingrediants. Pictures to follow when my lights kick on this evening. Soil- Roots original + 10% soilreef Biochar + 1 TBS/gal dolomite lime + Baseboost ( 100gr ) in 3gal pots Nutes- baseboost,startboost,bloomboost,peakboost,massboost,finaleboost,Ecozen. i was debating on doing a 3rd comparison of food grade DE but dont have any available to me locally.Ītmosphere-dialed in 74degrees/day w/ 45% humidity - 68degrees/night w/ 55% humidity I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has used these products before. with all the talk about Silica being a huge part of any nutrient regimen i had to see if im rightfully spending the $200 on 250ml of fasilitor ( every 3 months ) vs. Good morning/afternoon/Evening to all of you.ĭecided today (8/29) to start a Side by Side of fasilitor and armor Si.
