About to go into town and pick up some Micro, Im out, and my bulk order from GrowGreenMI won't be here till tomorrow, but I know Im gonna have 20-30 thirty ladies today, so I'll see if they have any Armor.... I was reading the label, and it says to add it first to fresh water. Thats what they recommend on the the Mirco is to add it first before Gro and Bloom... what order do you mix?

Armor Si is an overpriced silica-product in a fancy bottle.
There are way cheaper substitutes.

Also you can buy some silica-products that can be used as foliar fertilizer.
That way you don't have to worry about rising EC or pH.
Still you have to be carefull not to overfeed,

$90 for 2.5 gallons? That don't sound bad to me compared to other nutes. That'd prob last us a whole grow.

Super operation bud! Skimmed many pages. I'll take a seat and watch. Curious the size pot couldn't find? Ever experiment with air pots? I see 30 percent better yields. luv to see you do a side by side grow experiment. Costly but I mean size yield is money.

Thanks man!... We use 7 gallon pots (plastic mold).. and we reuse them. They have 8 big holes in the bottom, so we get good run off. Never used air pots, but you never know, we like to experiment with new stuff all the time. Just can't experiment with too many things at once, because it's hard to say "Oh yeah!, we got better yields because of XXX".. but maybe one day.

shit yea that's time and money. I am a sales and marketing kinda background guy. There is the major seller probably the national distributor on ebay selling them. IF it were me, I'd send him a note with your grow operation link here to show the operation. set up a zoom meeting. Tell him someone mentioned a challenge for 30 percent better results. Tell him, you will be glad to include in the next grow a 12 pot side by side challenge grow and you will mention his pots x number of times etc what he may ask and be in any survey or marketing campaign literature they want and see the results if he send you 12 free 7 gallon air pots ($30 buck each retail). I am not kidding. Its the friendly approach that wins. My background has both horticulture and cpg. You would be one of his best sales tools. After the grow you then have a partner that may let you either have or be a distributor in a new industry that needs success stories and marketing. I bet after that success pot price to you would be best wholesale price at least.

My background is 32 years in sales as well. I do use this approach with some vendors. Like AirROS. Our grow is featured on thier website, and my sales guy will throw clients my way for that extra push from someone who actually uses thier product. In return I get my yearly maintenance paid for when I flip a client to buy. This is a $1000 value for just talking to other growers about it and tell them my experience with the system. Don't laugh at the video, I dont wear a cowboy hat, except when Im mowing, nor do I have a stellar mustache.
