started grow question 4y ago
How do you exactly use GHE silicate powder in hydro set up? When I mix it in the tank in 24h it has all settled on the bottom. Advice needed !

Go light and use the liquid version. This stuff will burn a hole through diamond, so dilute it well before adding to reservoir or it will precipitate you nutes. Use half strength. This will spike a 5 gallon bucket near 8 or higher at 2 ml/gal.

I’m out of BioHeaven
I’m out of Bio-Heaven and I wonder whether it’s worth getting some more, given that I’ll probably flush the plants within a few weeks and only use water then. Plus it’s quite expensive compared to BioGrow, BioBloom or TopMax… Any ideas or maybe an organic substitute? Thanks!

Runoff pH still climbing!
My runoff PH keeps climbing despite lowering water pH. Plants look great but have red stems. Is it possible that the bottom of my fabric pots are saturated with excess Calcium and Diatomaceous Earth? Thus, raising my runoff PH. Soil meter reads 6.8 though 🤔

FOAM in the DWC tank
Hi guys, yesterday I changed the solution in DWC and today I saw some foam in the tank. I had some ph oscillation and used first ph down and after some silica to raise ph. I guess that could cause that foam, what do you think? Some tips?

Growth seems stunted?
I feel like the growth is a bit stunted and she isn’t looking as good as usual. Leaves hanging/curling a bit down and some look a bit blistery (very lightly only). I just did a flush with 5.9ph water 25 degrees and the runout was 6.1 ph and 605 ppm and ec 1210 so I assume 1.2?

How much do you feed them extra-PK with Biotabs ?
I use Biotabs : Mycotrex, Bactrex, Orgatrex, Startrex with a light mix soil and light water (0.08 to 0.1 ec). Some people told me I shouldn't put much PK 5-8 because they easily burn. How much and how often would you feed them PK ? I use blumats with plain water in 6.5L pots, thx
