    I'm voting for magnesium. Some epsom salt, perhaps?

    Bugbee at Utah State University is using wollastonite in their greenhouse mix. It's suppose to release Si throughout the grow cycle. It does indeed pop pH by as much as a point. They recommend 1g/L Wollastonite, about a tablespoon per gallon i think, which isn't much, so might not affect the...
