Gosh and begolly! What were we disagreeing on? The make up of K used for trich and terp production? The make up of K in Base nutrients and bloom enhancers?

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET

SECTION 3: COMPOSITION
Components; Potassium Sulfate
Now what did I say was the main source K for Base and Bloom use? K2O right?
Well look at that, I'm right, No SI !!!
Now what did I say was the most effective things for Trich and Terps enhancement? Formulations of K with S and Mg with S correct?
Oh, oh! NO Potassium Silicate!!!! These contain Mg Sulfate and K sulfate!
I'm right again on the formulations of K for trich and terp enhancement!!!
Cannabil, How did you dare to post this as proof of YOUR point?
EPIC FAIL!
Why have you not posted a paper or an article ON this BIG change to Potassium Silicate because it's more effective?
BECAUSE IT DOES NOT EXIST!
You can grow (if those are YOUR pics of YOUR plants), I'll give you that (unless of course you ARE PiK Booster)..
But the knowledge you espouse to know simply doesn't match your plant pics.....
I suspect you are PiK and a hack!
Liquid Karma and Nirvana are the same type of thing! Why are you dbling down on that?
Hydroplex 0-10-6 and Bud igni. 0-2-4 along with Canna or Bloombastic at 0-14-15 are the same type of thing! Why are you adding so much P on top of more?
Botanicare base eh? Even if you used a light P bloom of 2 (Their blooms range P from 2-6)
With all the P at play here,,,That is simply put "Too Much!" The plants would be having problems - you don't give us full plant shots do you....
At any rate.....Potassium Silicate is NOT "working it's magic" on those buds doing what YOU claim it does!
EXACTLY!!!
Hack!
Doc
Come on man just stop hatin on other people. Anyone can get good results when they use good nutrients and good genetics and know what to do. It is kind of funny that anytime I put up pictures all anyone can say is oh they look ok or good but you stole them. Like thats such a bs cop out. Just admit it, you aren't the only onewho knows how to get good results. And you don't know everything and there are many different ways to grow. Everyone has their own things they do that all work for them. Just because I don't use Dynagro or Jacks doesnt meab Im doing something wrong.
I aint pk boost. And Ive shown you my plants on several threads week by week. I have veg pics, early flower, full bloom pictures etc.. Don't start the if those are your pictures bs with me. You know damn well they are mine. I dont need to steal pictures and only a clown would have to justify themselves to stoop that low to dteal other peoples work. Thats pathetic. And just because my methods of growing dont coincide with yours doesnt mean I can't grow good plants. We may agree to disagree but I dont need dynagro or jacks to grow quality meds. And I can use PK boosters and different types of them because I know what I am doing. People only have issues when they over use and abuse them at incorrect times. Primarily locking out other nutrients and salt build up from over feeding. You can use anything so long as you do it properly thats what these products are made for. They arent base nutrients they are additives, that aid growth and development at critical times. Knowing when is the whole part of getting good results, and not fckin your plants up.
It makes no sense to me why you think growing cannabis needs to be a science project. This plant isn't that hard to grow at all. You even say all you need is dynagro foliage pro and protekt start to finish. Who couldnt figure that out? If that nutrient works so good and is so easy to use a monkey could figure it out. You did! Lol
And when you use good nutrients like botanicare, advanced, gh, canna (dynagro) whatever you choose they are made to grow plants. All you need to do is make sure you dont over or under feed, (water correctly),keep the ph stable in whatever medium you choose to use, and keep the environment good. This isn't something you need a PHD to figure out.
It's also ridiculous that so many people come on here with all this ridiculous mumbo jumbo about knowing your plants wants and needs, and making your own nutrients and having a botany and horticultural degree. None of that is necessary to grow cannabis, if you can grow tomatoes you can grow this shit. The hardest part is watering and ph and once you got that down the rest is easy. Good nutrients and good lights and an air conditioner go along way. People need to stop over analyzing and over thinking things making if way more complicated then it needs to be. Nutrient companies make complete line ups that are easy to use and get good results. If they didn't work noone would use them and move on to the next product. Take Canna just as an example. They have 5 products including their bases.
You pick your base, add their roots, zyme, boost and pk 13/14 for 1/2 feedings and thats all you need to get good results. You say that high P foods mess all this shit up and cause issues. Well Canna is one of the best nutrient lineups available to cannabis growers and is used world wide. If the flowering enhancers and boost was such bullshit how come they produce such good results?
Another company that produces superb quality meds and is world wide used is DUTCH PRO, they are known to have top nutrients espcially in Spain and Europe and all their products have PK enhancers and Boost additives. Just to make the point clear, just because you choose not to use them or dont believe in them doesn't mean anything. That is merely one man's opinion in a global pool of millions. I don't know any growers who really do big shit who don't use Pk or flowering enhancers in their grows. If you want to get the most out of your grows you absolutely need them, and are critically important for maximum yields and quality.
