Silica nutrients?

[Stonedkind]

I'm guessing this is new in nutrient world and only have seen it avalible in humboldt nutrients new additive structural integerity but is there any harmful effect that can happen when smoked like I read silica can cuase cancer so what I'm asking is is it worth using for stronger branches or is this like hormone in cannabis horticulture

It's not a nutrient per se and not new by any stretch. Available from many sources, not just humbolt.

I use ProTekt from Dyna Gro. ~$15/Qt. Google Dyna-Gro corp. and do a little reading on just what silica does for your plants.

Wet dog hit it on the button. I do use the humbolt silica like 20 bones a qt and it has lasted me 2 grpws on my 3 rd now and havnt even gone thru half a bottle.
Helps fight against frost and high temps. Makes the cell walls stronger. Overall a very good produxt to use.

LIke WetDog said, im all for Dyna-gro Pro-tekt. can start from 1.5 Ml to 5.0 ML per gallon...recently I use 4.5 Ml per gallon that burned my lady out...on the flower leaves become dreaded eagle claw for that little 4.5 ML ! I made a mistake...but I learned something about this.

I ve been using this Pro-Tekt from last year for few corps, still plenty in the bottle that will last me for long time !

hey buddy whatever you want to, just see it for yourself as you gain the knowledge and exprience of the fertilizers

Happy growing and peace

I know what it does for the plant it detours pests from what I have also read I am worried on the fact of does it stay in flowers after flushing nutrients I think I answered my self there's but I know if us as humans inhale silica I belive we can get cancer And I just wanna make sure before I start using it in my buds but now that I hear that it has been used for little bit I feel a little more at ease using it Already have most of humboldt but will loOk in to pro tek for my next system

If you used enough to worry about, you would have killed the plant long before harvest. LOL

Something like 80% of the earth is silica, think sand and rocks and such.
