Can silicone improve auto flowers bud density or is it mainly to improve stem strength?

It provides strength in general. Too much will make flower tough. I use silica in my autos.

Use silica all the time, it improves resistance against stresses, biotic and abiotic. Together with Boro and molibdenum helps the uptake of nutrients. Least but not last makes bigger and sturdy trichomes ( they are made of silica mainly)

I use silica mainly for Veg. Stop after they have stretched . It's not worth giving it in late flower. I have read it can decrease quality.

Half way done week 3 of flower. Just wondering if there are different nutrients I should be adding. I'm using general hydroponics. Just using what it says to on the bottle for feeding. Do the bud candy add that much growth? Blackstrap molasses to water? When? Any advice please?

The pH of the runoff continues to drop below 6.0 with each feed, resulting with me trying to bounce it back every other watering. I would like for the pH to be more stable. Any ideas why this might be happening? I am using Advanced Nutrients pH perfect - Grow, Micro, Bloom.

What would you recommend as the course of action for these girls? I need them to recover quick.... My thoughts are some root tonic? Since giving them last round of nutes, I've just been giving water and recovery is so slow, girls are barely moving....

For the vegetative period have been using Biobizz light mix and BB grow, root juice and Alg-a-mic. When i switch to flowering i would use BB top max and bloom. I was thinking of using AN big bud and bud candy. I was also recommended to use Atami Bloombastic. Any insight?

How do you guys determine if a plant is either overwatered or underwatered? Any tricks to notice the difference easier?
I find it hard to see/spot the difference between the two, and almost ruined #002 as you can see in the pictures of this week.
