Is the Power Si organic or is it safe for the soil microbes? I really need to find a way to add silica into my dry amendment growing as I am dealing with buds flopping all over the place on day 50 and I have 20 days to go. I end up with pipe cleaners everywhere and my plants look like the center tent at Ringling Bro's circus. I use Dr Earth and Recharge as well but not the king crab.

Power SI is organic and safe for all growing mediums even DWC. They have two lines one for veg and one for bloom. It’s a bit pricey but the bottles last a long time and worth it to me. There are 3 Types of silica compounds found in nature. Power Si contains monosilic acid which is the “smallest” of all the silica’s and the only one that is readily available for your plants to uptake making it extremely effective. Other silica’s that aren’t monosilic acid take much longer to break down and become readily available. With silica it really makes a difference when your plants can uptake it early on which is why I prefer monosilic acid. There are other silica’s on the market that work. I’ve used many. Protekt, Agsil13H etc and prefer power si the most. It also has other additives in it that really polish your nutes regimen as well. @FirstCavApache64

Hey everyone Day 23 Sunday update. I’ve done selective defoliation as I go. Plucking leaves covers other branches and plucking “larf” forming at the bottoms. I even found a few nanners at the very bottom of some. These are from seeds and a nanner here and there is not uncommon. I find running the clones I don’t get nanners at all. I once threw away a fire PBB in my early growing because of 2 nanners. Wish I knew with cloning things like nanners will balance out. Cheers! Hope everyone is having a chill and blessed weekend.

I turned my light to 100% from 80%. My bar light is 480W from the wall. The leaves started praying harder. People be running 680W+ all day so I’ll turn mine up sooner than usual and see what it can do. As long as I keep the temps in check. I have my a/c dedicated to 76F in my room (which is my lung room). Even at 100% my high temp is 82. Day 25.

Day 30
I ended up culling one of the frozen fruit plants. She had way to many nanners on it. I found over 20 on the lowers. Some larfy lower buds had 4-6 nanners stacked. Luckily I don’t think they popped but just decided to cut the whole plant.

Don’t got time for pollination ruining the whole crop. I may just rid of the clone even though a clone is probably more stable and less likely to nanner in flower. I got too many seeds and strains I need to get to and it’s just another way eliminate what isn’t a keeper.
