Silicon usage instructions tell you to adjust pH after adding it to the water BEFORE adding the rest. It likely reacts with the nutes if not neutralised first. Keep it off your skin... it stings!
Usage instructions:
Silicon MAX is a highly-concentrated silicon additive which is strongly alkaline. You should add it to the water first, mix, then add your nutrients. Adjust the pH using VitaLink Essentials pH Down before adding your base nutrients and additives, as Silicon MAX raises the pH. Recommended pH range 5.8-6.5.
Use 1ml/L alongside your main nutrients When topping up nutrient solution dilute Silicon MAX well in water before adding it to existing solution. Shake well before use.
Dosage: it suggests 1/2ml /gallon for seedlings rising to 1ml/gallon for mature plants.
