well, what is then?

Tria is definitely the viagra. But it elongates the member more than gives it girth.what do i do to give my plants Viagra like mrGoG here and y'all
i have the base nutes, trying incorporate silica and mr fulvic, and ~~~~~~~~trying to get to a "full" Nutritional "program" for them.
like any PGRs like triacontanol, and/or acids and/hormones etc
you using any triacontanol ? is that the viagra? , cant say its the genes cause im willing to bet most of his grows are the same girthy bitches, with different strains.

when you put it that way....It's like adding extra glue to the paper maché paste. A plant with added silica will have stronger stems that don't collapse under their weight so easily, thicker more durable cuticle on the leaf.
The dry weight of cannabis is 95%+ carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen. Silicate likely doesn't exceed a couple grams per kilo of cannabis grown, even supplemented.
Truthfully I’ve only added the silicate 3 times so far, not saying it doesn’t help in veg but I start adding it more frequently now that I’m starting flower.Id be surprised if you said no, I can see it.
That silica putting in work

I have contentions on that last point. I've ran silica end to end for many runs, and I'm not 100% convinced it causes "rock hard buds." It can cause issues in flower, yes, but it's not the primary cause of that. IME rock hard buds are caused by PGRs, with a very tiny bit of genetic influence. Silica might've been an additive, but it's not the root cause of that trait.FYI
Stems and branches do not become larger by Silica, (mono) it increases the branch or stem strength, also makes them brittle. It also increases cell wall health and it can help prevent mold in buds but it has to be balances because if you run it all the way to the end it can make rock hard buds.
I always dropped it from the res near the end of flower. It doesn't make buds rock hard like pgr buds but I found it can make a harsher smoke and firm bud that doesn't bust up as nice.I have contentions on that last point.

your doing fine with your grows, I’d be in bigger containers if I had the choicewhat do i do to give my plants Viagra like mrGoG here and y'all

after last run, and running side by side with you, that's why i've dropped silica entirely. figured out the water here finally, so let's see if the flowers end up burning that gorgeous dissolving grey/white instead of black this time .I always dropped it from the res near the end of flower. It doesn't make buds rock hard like pgr buds but I found it can make a harsher smoke and firm bud that doesn't bust up as nice.
Mr G has good genetics there, but most importantly he has the experience under his belt, his environment, feeding and methods are kinda fuckin dialed in. Dude knows his grows.what do i do to give my plants Viagra like mrGoG here and y'all

What else do we have to do...another thread hijacked.
haha thanks man.your doing fine with your grows, I’d be in bigger containers if I had the choice
Your fascination with trees growing out of solos blows my mind.
the dirty three... pretty sure there was a reason we got the hammer side by side by side lmaoWhat else do we have to do...

I appreciate that.Mr G has good genetics there, but most importantly he has the experience under his belt, his environment, feeding and methods are kinda fuckin dialed in. Dude knows his grows.
yeah, no doubt, very quick/able for short veg too and have decent sizeMr G has good genetics there, but most importantly he has the experience under his belt, his environment, feeding and methods are kinda fuckin dialed in. Dude knows his grows.

No lies there.the dirty three... pretty sure there was a reason we got the hammer side by side by side lmao
I’m surprised myself, considering 2 of the varieties are DFG tester genetics, to be here in 40 days is as good as I could imagine it. Perhaps rockwool one day with an automated setup could be even faster. That’s what the other amigos say anyways.yeah, no doubt, very quick/able for short veg too and have decent size
it showsno "thanks" here. cheers my gents. DB is a beast, OG is the classiest of us. Pretty sure he mutters under his breath every time DB or I do something, but he's solid. Hell of a grower, that's for sure. Better than I am.
im starting my first RW soon, 9 oz solos, 8 cubes, CLF auto water.I’m surprised myself, considering 2 of the varieties are DFG tester genetics, to be here in 40 days is as good as I could imagine it.

the thanks for me is, ill drink to that, the eyes to me are , ok i see you, or frickin beautiful prick, dont think so is, i disagree, or i think thats wrong, to me.ok I'm gonna call it. WTF is with the reaction subtext? "eyes" to me are I'm watching. "thanks" is cheers. "don't think so" is thinking. What misunderstanding is going on here?
I appreciate the friendships made through growing, you’re a beast too @tobh, a real fart smeller you would say.no "thanks" here. cheers my gents. DB is a beast, OG is the classiest of us.

this is why i hate emojis on forums.the thanks for me is, ill drink to that, the eyes to me are , ok i see you, or frickin beautiful prick, dont think so is, i disagree, or i think thats wrong, to me.
Best believe I know where to go for advice if I need it. you and Aqua are legendary lads.Adam was a goddamn spy! Haha
Really can't wait to see some flowers here man. I soo want to get a grow going but can't do it. Wife would murder me, have too many projects now. Im living vicariously here man, and you're/we're Killin it! haha.
yup yall moe and franksta are most-scientific accurateBest believe I know where to go for advice if I need it. you and Aqua are legendary lads.
I have a good feeling about this run, but so far to go.
fuck the science man, we're just growing weed hereits like his plants are eating

understandablethis is why i hate emojis on forums.
a simple karma system is much easier. the more "likes" you get, the more karma you have to spend. pay that karma by upvoting an informative/valuable post. emoji reacts are unquantifiable.
maybe i'm just a weathered forum user. shit used to not raise contention. a like adds karma, karma is given to respectable posters on specific, value adding posts. semantics were limited to a simple button -- you click it if you agree it adds value,
but i love the science behind it all, too, lol.fuck the science man, we're just growing weed here
Don't listen to @tobh, he's drunk. I am too so don't listen to me either. But looking past that, I'd say it's as much art as it is science. Once you understand the science, you can play with the art. But not the other way around.but i love the science behind it all, too, lol.
very passionate about it.
doing something physical with my hands, input > output , seeing changes, running into a problem and finding a solution.
