@THC3, i actually had some micro biologists make me my own canna-specific micro mixes, i'll be putting up my tests in my new diaries... i feel there's a lot of FUD-y nutrients out there, and not enough (FUD-y?) micro available on the market... might have to launch my own... not sure yet if I want to lose money on this lol

@CRiSPrGrow, it’s a silicate compound added to the nutes. Silica promotes stronger cell walls so makes for strong roots and stems and also makes the plants less prone to pest attacks. A very worthwhile additive. Silica is available in a number of forms and can either be an acid or alkaline base. Shop around you should find some type local to you. Well worth using I feel.

@THC3, ha yeah FUD means possibly intentionally false statements meant to instill doubt or fear, in this case "oh no do i really need 12 bottles of nutes for my plant?"... totally normal for the plant to flower slowly, on the other hand i've been researching using the far red spectrum intermittently and at lights off for 15 minutes to induce faster "sleep" this could perhaps help with the slow flowering
