I'm using armor si and growing in a different medium, but, general hydroponics recommends mixing the silicates first (with calmag if you're using it), before micro nutes and then the others. Ive only used armor si once so far, no bad side effects. I mixed it in my water, shook it up well and let it sit a few minutes, added calmag and shook again. Then I added in micro nutes and the others.

Wow thats pricey! Im sure it will work great for you! Botanicare makes good stuff. Here is agsil for anyone that us interested.
Agsil16H Potassium Silicate (2 lb)
I can only find 2lbs right now but 2lbs is 26$US. 1lb is probably too much lol but its cheap and makes a lot of liquid.
"Dry Recipe: Use 1.5 Grams (Just under 1/2 teaspoon) Per Gallon of Water for Foliar Spray or Soil Drench."

I also use armor si and have for most of my grow. All one has to do is look at the gel gunk that forms around the mouth and cap of the bottle if it's not kept clean to know why they suggest mixing in the water first.
Being my first grow I have nothing to compare too but the vigor of my plants would suggest it works wonders.

Silica works well to strengthen cell walls which helps deter insects and microbes.

Girls moved to tent! Here we go!!
Although i didnt scrub the tent is clean!! Sprayed bleach water everywhere and hosed down with bleach water and tap. Cant wait for new healthy growth! Some of the internodes are stacked one ontop the other.
Lots of tops there, time to kick em in high gear. .

Hey Boys
I got a bit excited seeing those beef jerky things! My humidity gets a little high (and I get a sad face on the hygrometer) so I thought if huge ones of these things work - it'd be genius. But..I assume by your amusement, BF, I shouldn't be searching eBay for some? Love your journal btw!

Looking much better now!

Hey AB thank you!! Hey check out this product called damp rid. I use the bucket size its maybe 32oz and works to bring % down by about 10% for a few days in my 4x4. You could add a few buckets and they are refillable. I use damp rid brand but you can find many others that do the same, wick humidity out of a small space. Ebay should be great but i got mine from home depot
Thanks pw! I have to figure the closet out. It shouldnt be an issue for seeds but clones may have trouble starting in there. I have to measure how high the light is and figure out ventilation. Ill have to google closet setups. I cant really break, make holes, or take anything apart in there.

1 thanks joe! They do look happier
2 they are on the botanicare flood tray. Its pretty cool it has channels so they get some air on the bottoms. Wheni was getting runoff i had it of the ground with a tote to collect water but now it sits on the floor. No runoff so shouldnt be an issue
Wow ordered two days ago look what arrived.
