Rhino Skin via drippers

**Shreder** · 01-06-20, 12:59 PM

Just purchased this, only silica additive available, pricy though.. $25 for 500ml, so will give a go on some weaker clones, they too leggy atm gotta make em stronger... So couple questions bout the product:

Is it safe to feed via drippers?
I use a 130 micron / 0.13mm pre-filter.

Dosage instructions are 2mpl, will 1mpl be as effective? (Knowing AN already pmsl)

Feed late into bloom or stop after stretch?

Thanks all
Stay safe

I just watered mine in; from what I have read this can mess up pH. ATB

Awww shoot, I use soil. I was feeding about a litre every 2 days, 1 ml of which is the Rhino Skin. How does that translate into your coco regime?

No idea about foliar feed, not really my thing.

with any silica products make sure you add them to the res first then ph to 7 before adding the rest of your nutes
I run mine through the droppers but I make mine myself, its potassium silicate but has the same effect
Shredder add this to your foliars too

I kinda dont want it in my drippers.. is it beneficial to only foliar it? Maybe hand feed but then it fcks up my drippers regimen

Agree with what Redz is saying...Its potassium silicate pretty much the same stuff as Growth technology liquid silicone...Its fine to run through a dripper system or foliar feed...Remember this is only a supplement so no need to go mental with it, a couple low dose applications per week will do the job just fine.

I like foliar feeding whatver is supplemental.. u reckon every other day for a week, then bi-weekly until after stretch? How long should keep applying ?

Edit;
To make myself clear, question is should i supplement a little extra as they all are very fragile? Branches r thin af cuz i stressed them clones in very young age
