Dr D as FM says POTsil is Silicone. So no.

And I purchased mine from them direct. Think it works out around £9 inc delivery and VAT. For 2000L (diluted) its a bargain.

Not dumb at all, that was how i always did it. In fact, that is pretty much what I still do, but I cut the N out early and that makes a big difference.

The clue is in the name Potsil, short for Potassium Silicate.

Silicon makes a big difference in hydro and coco, I get really strong thick stems and it really does help the plant fight off moulds and mildews.

Same here. I like to hammer them with the base feeds and additives till week 6 all the time ramping up PKs.

Then I start the Top shooter. This really whacks up the EC, but to use you must lower your base to 1.2 ec. This is for the last 3 feed week and before the 2-3 week flush. You find the N is all gone by 1 week into the TS feeding and before you flush most fan leaves are bright yellow or fallen off.

This ensures a great smoke, nice and clean and free of N. And dam the buds get big.

Its all about finding the happy medium. As if you under N at the beginning you will be forever chasing the N as I say. Drastically effecting yields.

Saw all the same info on the mr.nice forum a few weeks back, just having a go at making my own hammerhead, or i will be as soon as the distilled water arrives. Ive got enough MKP and potash to make over 250L lol.

Not used Top Shooter but your method sounds the same as mine. Is TS a PK booster? I'm at day 30 of 12/12 today and I'm just starting to ramp up the P and K and reduce the N. Way I see it, P and K grow buds whereas N grows leaves and they are at the point where I don't want to grow any more leaf, I just want them to grow more buds.I feed veg nutes for the first two weeks of bloom then two weeks of bloom nutes then I start adding P and K and slowly tailing off the bloom nutes will upping the PK until last week before the flush they are just getting PK then I flush for only 2 weeks, not 3. I know 3 gives a little bit more smell and taste but I find it reduces yield and it doesn't improve some plants as compared to 2 weeks whereas some really do benefit from a 3 week flush.

Nice one, let us know how it goes. Remember to put the sulphate of potash in first then add the mpk second.

You can buy enzymes in very much more concentrated form for cleaning septic tanks, unblocking sinks and treating pond algae. Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice, which is very expensive, is nothing more than rebottled septic tank cleaner they buy in bulk.

One good, cheap source of enzymes is this Hagesan Kitchen Sink & Drain unblocker, it's very strong so use it in tiny amounts, about 6 quid for a 750ml bottle and will last you a long time.

this stuff whats it do pleas n thankyou

[shafty420]

from what can gather funkys trying to say its same as Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice which costs about £40 a litre
funky whats dilution of that sink unblocker per litre?

heres what the advanced nutrients website says about voodoo juice
https://www.advancednutrients.com/hyd...nformation.php

so instead of paying £40 for some plant nutrients can pay £6.00 for practicly same stuff without fancy packaging
