What is this ?

i'd agree with them: drop the N boost. the base nutes + the cal/mg should give you plenty.

how muck K is in the silica product?

their recommended rate is 5ml per gall but ill get reaction after adding B 100 % so i use 2.5 ml per gall

I grow 4 or 5 different strain at the same time which is always difficult to dial in. Sometimes I have one strain that just doesn't want the same treatment all the others like. There is no set gage for all strains and you have to figure that out .

Ok so I’ll break it down man, H&G run their system at optimal levels. Light humidity temp water etc. if you’re not pumping the same wattage lights they were during testing when they created their charts etc then your plants will not take Nuets the same way or at the same level. They may need a ppm of 800 because they’re environment and most importantly their lights are at a higher quality than yours therefore the plants themselves feed stronger and more often but if you don’t have those variables dialed in exact then your plants may only up take 400 ppm and leave the other 400 to build up over and over and cause a lockout. You can’t always go off the manufacture recommends because your grow area is almost guaranteed to not be as optimal as there’s was. Hope that makes sense. As for the H&G, their website says no aerating the res but tech support says otherwise. I don’t aerate. Or follow their charts because my systems not like their system and yet my girls flourish just fine and I only run the base nuets A/B with some bush dr sledgehammer to keep the buildups down.

As for res temps 65-67! Not sure the guy you’re taking with even knows what he’s doing. Mines between 73-77 daily and never an issue. Ppm around 390-400 and hasn’t shown a any issues. Only issues I had was sediment buildup in the res and that was caused by aeration apparently. Soon as I removed the air the ph stabilized and the sediment stopped. Also H&G is listed as a DTW Nuet so if you’re recirculating you must add a drip clean or keep it clean or something comparable to it or you’ll get crazy ph spikes and can cause lockout. Just my $0.02 take it for what it’s worth to you.

yup no boosters
A+B aqua
Botanicare calmag 2 ml per gall
epsom salt 0.25 gr per gall
multizen
hydroguard
Root exc silver
silicate 2.5 ml per gall
nitrogen boost 1 ml per gall

Ditch multizen ,and root ex silver. As said give them a a good flush. 24 hrs. Then just base nutes and calmag at 1 EC or 500 ppm. If that doesn’t work change nutes

The OP is running DWC. Water temps must be kept much cooler for this.
