BuildASoil Product Highlight: MONTANA GROW SILICA AMENDMENT 

Aloha & Here in Hawaii for silica we use black lava cinders with acid peat moss. BINGO! I just won 1st place at the 2022. Emerald Cup Breeders Hall of Fame now i am with with Robert Connell Clarke and Mel Frank.

the smirk on that guys face is great while jeremey is in the zone talking science as the sales guy

Rudolf Steiner name drop takes this to a whole new level of esoteric understanding 🤙❤

Dude is impressed with Jeremy and his speaking skills. Thank you Jeremy. You continue to inspire me. ✨️

I watched this before but just rewatched the last 7 minutes. Shit just got me pumped. Jeremy's passion about building soil is something else.

Appreciate the talk about eliminating heavy metals.. man, thank you. You and Brandon, truly.

i would feel completely safe if this guy was holding all the infity stones. I trust him!

We are all so very proud of you Jeremy. 👏

Good to know Jeremy! And thanks for already putting it into the 3.0 and Craft Blend 👍😁

Great product Walmart Has 50lb Bag For 99 Dollars deff. worth the buy.Your plants will love you.Great vid

B.A.S...? What happened with RecycleSil? That was, by far, the best Silica supplement (99% Biogenic Silica) I've ever used, by a large margin, and I was purchasing it from your company. Now it's like it never existed, as every other type of Silica was mentioned in the video, but not The best you've had..? I actually ordered some from Sio-Tex, who produces it, last time. It cost me more than you charged, but it's so incredible and requires so little, I didn't have a problem with the price. What happened to this great product you distributed, and maybe still do, but since you didn't mention it at all when talking about Silica products, I'm guessing you don't distribute this greatest Silica I've ever found? Love you guys and all you offer that others often don't have. You're one of a kind, in this Sea of products out there. Always great advice, as well! What happened with RecycleSil?👍💯✌️ Edit: A year later now, and I see Sio-Tex, who created and sold this product, isn't in business anymore..?! Possibly because it was around for almost a decade with little advertisement. I think word got around when BAS customers had incredible results..?! Stems never wider than a Sharpie pen, were suddenly the diameter of an industrial broomstick! Biggest difference I've had with one product! Now, I've tried a few different Silicic Acid products. The expensive, 0.5ml/gallon rate, "top of the line" products, and VPS Structure, a Colloidal Silica. None of these have come close to RecycleSil. And it was around $30/lb, 1/8 tsp per gallon of water. It was 99% Biogenic Silica, which must be different from Amorphous Silica, like in DE Silica, which wasn't noticable, at all. Too bad you guys/someone else, couldn't get this recycled Rice Hull's technology to create this incredible product that otherwise goes to waste..?! I'd pay double the price for that! Just an incredible product, and from a waste product. I'm going to try some Montana Grow, and see how it goes. I'm hoping for great outcomes. Better than Silicic Acid (Ortho/Mono. Same thing). RecycleSil really set the bar high! My dream is that you'll be able to get this tech that's no longer being used (maybe for a great deal..?!), as it seems they're marketing was terrible. No response ever from you..?! Maybe you are working on this at BAS..?! Seems simple, and exactly what you stand for! But maybe there were other problems with this "Super Silica". Or in taking over from the manufacturer..?! Forgive my rambling, please! Id love to hear what you know about it's sad demise, and if you looked into "taking this tech off their hands", etc..?! The only BAS mystery I've never heard anything about..?! PS- Love the Craft Blend, especially. Thanks Jeremy!

Hey just received my 5lb order of Silica, just a heads up the lid broke in the shipping envelope and a small amount spilled into the envelope(I just threw it in a tea I already had brewing so no worries) just figured you'd want to know. Thanks for making great content and having a pretty kickass online store.

I remember my step father having bags of Azomite in the eighties. He (we) spread like 30 bags of it on our gardens. He went to college for plant science at Penn State and we owned 3 acres that he planted 90% full of food. I spent many hours pulling weeds, shucking peas, picking beans....money was tight then.

Dude. Your research blows me away.. I so need that book and need that product... 🤙 Got me as a full time flower...

I bought it. I’m sprinkling it onto all my vegetable outdoor raised beds.

Convinced. Just purchased a 25lb bag. Great video. Thanks Jeramy. 😎

First time I started adding silica in a grow my plants were very noticeably thicker in there roots and stalk/branches. Look forward to trying out Montana grow in the near future.

with the rice hulls u will also get silica once the hulls break down I believe I could be wrong but I remember him talking about it

I use silicone dioxide always remember silica goes in first as they said cheers wonderful content keep them coming neighbor

This video, along w the data dump all across the web such as Dr Bruce's NASA study info, convinced me this was the optimum product. I ordered a 100 lb bag immediately direct. it is HANDS DOWN the most useful, highly valued additive I have ever purchased and owned aside from Calcium Hydroxide for SPS coral prop. This is arguably the BEST mushroom TEK developer in the world speaking, and arguably one of the best cultivators in flora as well. Thanks Sirs. you CRUSHED it hard w this one and major Props to OG: you didnt have to keep that company going I know you passed on far more lucrative opportunities but you did a major service to humanity and have exposed the secret to food security for the masses: tapping into silica reserves as 80% of the earth's crust. people: even sand can be a source. this is the BEST source I have seen for soil, of course monosilic acids hydro are GREAT too but this is better. more even, sustained release controlled by fungi at mathematical perfection. Thanks a million for humanity, for eternity.

Dude you're really teaching us great information and I appreciate it!

Wow, this was amazing! Not only a product highlight but a true explanation that will make us better gardeners!! I love how you got so deep into it that you even mentioned why or why not just ground up your own rocks and add them to the garden, which is something I thought about. I also found this quite fascinating since I'm learning a lot about minerals, rocks and crystals including those made from silica. Very thorough, Very cool as always!! 🤙

GAME CHANGING PRODUCT. I ordered a big bag to do mixed into lixing soil hybridized w hydro/mobile DWC... GAME CHANGER Thank you Sirs! I would value this product over all other for any plant PERIOD. One of the best cultivators in the world. Amorphous silica LETS GO!

These more advanced topics are exactly what we need these days, most growers are blazing away by now so….. note,I use a liquid watering additive bought at my local hydroponic grow store. Hydroponic watering programs recommend it be added first before a list of five or six prior to final ppm and phmesure and adjust. Yep ya spoke of cation exchange. It’s correct.

I've been using a liquid Silica boost for a little over a month and I feel like it's making all my stems and leaves thicker. I'm using it on hoyas and aroids. I actually found this video while researching whether or not silica would be a good thing to add to the water from my tomato seeds

I feel privileged just watching and extracting pertinent information.

Good show, I had just been researching silicon for plant health. I'm using Silicon Dioxide.

Every video on this channel blows my mind. My next run is gonna be the BAS way and I’m positive it will crush.

Whats up with the autoflowers this week? Has the 18/6 group caught up with the 12/12 plants? It will be interesting to see if they finish together as well as comparing yield and quality.

Awesome video, mate! Got something new! Thanks for sharing:)

You are in the perfect place if you weren't you should be a teacher hell you are a teacher and good at it 👍

I get my extra plant available silica from oats soaked for 24hrs . My soil is a living soil mix of good clay, great compost, peat, granite rockdust, seaweed and worm castings , plus extra earation from potting grit instead of perlite. Also I layed the 15g fabric pot in the Leighton Morrison soil horizons system

Your knowledge and passion for what you do is absolutely amazing! I have thought about how great it would be if I could move to your nock of the woods, work for and beside you strictly for the knowledge!!! Keep up the most knowledgeable videos on this topic I’ve ever seen!! So how can I apply to come work with you???

Question is there anyway you would be able to do a grow that shows the effects of deficiencies/toxicity..what too much/little N.P.K looks like and too much/little micronutrients look like and how to fix the issues using BUILDASOIL products. I doubt you will see this yet alone read this but in the slight chance you do..I feel this would be very beneficial for the newbies like myself and a good refresher for everyone.

Brain knowledge spill, he’s letting the gate of brain knowledge open n it’s spilling out, Everybody get your brain sponge out n absorb that knowledge!!! ✌️🤟Thank you MUCH appreciated 🙏🏻

Great vid. Thank you I learned a lot from it. In fact I’ve learned a lot from so much of what you’ve done Thank you

Weird Science! My garden only needs to pass my test ;) , but I'm glad you're looking out for those that have to comply with other tests.

Back in the day GH had a silica product, a clay like powder you had to add hot water to and mix. It seemed like it added something but they quit selling it. Never thought the liquids were the same, but that stuff looks nice, definitely going to try some out.

I’m so excited to start my second grow with all this knowledge. Not just from this but all that you’ve made available.

#SaveSoil you Buildasoil folks are doing it right let’s take it one step further

Planes flying over was awesome 😎 😉😀. I’ve been using Silica for PM, but now it’s a metal diluter or remover is even more awesome it does so much..Great video

Can you add silica in all stages of plant life

Great video,We need build a soil up here in Canada bad! I would love to try some more of your products!

I use alot of diatomaceous earth for gnats and other bugs, my question is does this provide me enough silica? Or do I need more ? 🤔

I feel like PowerSi is the 800 lb gorilla in the room. Can you please give your feedback on that product? From what I've seen and heard, PowerSi works wl for both hydro and soil applications. Can you please explain why or why not PowerSI would fit into the living soil regimen? Thank you for all the great content!

I just started researching this yesterday and here you are delivering some prime content thank you

Thank you, just put some in the checkout cart . Can’t wait to use it

Bout to strain my first horsetail jlf tomorrow

Was sold the b.a.s. Agsil 16H by my local grow shop for a silica supplement. Didn't quite understand how to use it. Nothing on the website mentions the fact that it spikes pH to over 9 at half the recommended dose. Did 2 watering's and a compost tea like that and the plants are now quite unhappy, losing the largest/lowest fan leaves to necrosis spots, and all leaf tips sharply pointing down. Hoping I can recover.

Cool! Sold!! Send me a trash can full of that stuff.

I didn’t even know about silica in soil till about 18 years ago when I was looking for a natural way to keep bad bugs off my plants. I read about Diatomaceous earth and decided to try it out, so I got a good size container of food grade (which I thought meant it had been tested for things like heavy metals to be used that way, not necessarily true) and dusted my plants pretty heavy because it was Florida and pests are bad. Well it rained of course and washed it right into the soil pretty fast, so I reapplied. Long story short that year was phenomenal compared to others and eventually heard about silica in it helping but it was like a wives tale back then and hard to find good info on it. Thank you guys as always for looking out for us and the soil. I look forward to using this product!!

Great vid! Would love to know a little more about the differences between this product and something like PowerSi

Love the content been using the craftblend for about 8 months now and really love how it's helped my plants

How much Montana silica should you use on a 5-10 gallon pot when it’s No till and how would you apply it, just top dress?

Can this be used as a top dressing? Pots already been made. Would like add this for the start of my grow

Outstanding!!!!! Love this product, love all the great info about silica and all the amazing benefits

Thanks for highlighting this and it's importance. I've read a lot and people are talking about green sand. If only that Montana grow silica was in the UK. Much love as always thanks you as always. Important ingredient i only hear you talking about

I put pool filter sand in bottom of my living soil beds, hoping that my plants will benefit from the silica in the sand over time. Also with some greensand in the soil mix. Thanks for all your info

Great episode

Love the product highlight...where would this be used in relation to the BAS schedule?

Great video

Silica is an important amendment that’s not talked about enough and a key ingredient that’s missing in potting mix. Being plants grow in an abundance of silica in nature it’s extremely important and not added which can lead to weaker plants Overall.,

what is the differance between rice hulls in 3.0 and silicon in montana grow

Bro Jeremy could be a damn college professor Id be a every class 😂

Is this dude an undercover Chad? Is it just me or does it seem like he doesnt even smoke... :)

You are a great teacher my plants are busting out of my greenhouse

Thank you Jeremy! Very cool! Silica is an underdog and it's often overlooked.

Well there goes $56 …if it works as advertised like the Craft Blend did for me I’m IN !! thanks so much!,

For My first grow I foliage sprayed in on. That was big mistake almost threw the “grrit” weed result away. It washed off With water. The buds were gravel hard. It Taste like nasty grit! Next I learned to add minute quantities to water and nutrient mixes to solidify the cell walls for a solid dense bud at cure time. I expect flushing was imperative to do well. It will make yer plant stress resistant I think. This is silica we speak of.

I love the sound of this silica! I’m excited for my plants!

I’m experimenting with a bonsai mix! Organic Compost Soil--- blend of premium ingredients ( Peat moss, perlite, coconut coir, fir bark, worm castings) designed to create an optimal root environment and support beneficial microbial activity. Pre-charged with slow-release organic fertilizers ( Glacial rock dust, feather meal, alfalfa meal, bone meal, rock phosphate, blood meal, mineralized phosphate, mined potassium sulphate, basalt rock dust, gypsum, kelp meal, oyster shell flour) Vermiculite---all bonsail plants thrive in high-moistured environments, mixing vermiculite to the soil will hold the moisture and nutrients for later use, since it's lightweight, which is excellent buffering for the root zone. Black Lava--- rich in micro-nutrients, trace elements and minerals, and will also help minimize compaction. With lava rock plant roots do not struggle to take water and oxygen in, and lava rocks also helps to allow carbon dioxide to escape easily. Fine & Coarse Pumice--- a soft volcanic rock, it helps to retain water and allows the roots to ramify very well . Also it will maintain more stability in the bonsai pot, and raises airflow inside the bonsai pot. High Fired Calcined Clay & Perlite My plant is about a month old and doing fantastic!!

Whats your thoughts about Azomite u said u stoped selling it im curiouse why.. thanks for your info and research..

Holly cow!!! Just more amazing information!!!! Thank you so much!!!

OMG this is awesome and another must buy. Is this in craft blend? Do I need to add to that?

Would like to see a product highlight video on the wetting agent by Growing Organic. Im curious about whether we can use it mixed in with other IPM like Doctor Zymes.

He looks so proud. We are the future 🤘🏼

What is the bioavailability difference's between mineral silicon and organic like Recycle Sil?

cant we just use perlite since most is 70% silica

Can to much silica damage the plant?

How available is the silica in the rice hulls, which we bought lots of?

Great content, learning everyday. Thank you

😁 I'm 8 min in and I think Jeremy is the only one talking...

I'm not. Shure but I have been told that green sand doesn't do any good for the first year and it does best in year four I would love to know if that is true

Growing in Earth boxes. Already using your Light soil and Craftblend. Any benefit adding Montana Silica to top dress?

guess question is, you already add this to the dirt ,craft blend,is this enough or is there benefit to adding more?

Comment number 40 I love this channel!!!!! Thank you!!!

So silica acts like a microbe holding nutrients in the soil. Will microbes eat silica and double the availability or is it a secondary food bank?

ENTHUSIASM! I love it, great video as always

Jeremy moves like a Ninja 👐🏻

right on build a soil strong right on gentlemen..way two grow

So how do I consume more silica if I bought a big big of this montana grow silica? Seems to be even more beneficial to us than our plants!

Thank you so much for the knowledge keep nerding out I love it man thanks ✌️🔥🌲🔥🍄

I use mono silica in my garden wonderful stuff

Hey Jeremy, how are you man? I’ve literally watched all your videos and I’ve learned so much and I seriously am on the edge of my seat every time I see you posted a new one. Thanks for what you do! They should honestly offer gardening as an elective in school, and you should be there syllabus behind it. Anyway I have a question and I’m hoping you can help. What are your thoughts on a 6/2 light schedule? Do you have any experience with this? Or maybe your personal thoughts? I’m running photos. And I only ask because I’m having serious temperature issues in my 5 x 5. I have a 6 inch AC infinity exhaust, with a 4 inch AC infinity pumping air in, one small fan on my light, and one circle circulation fan Midway hanging. And it’s still hitting 86 to 90° in my tent. I’m running a California Lightworks solarextreme 500. And it just puts off a lot of heat. And unfortunately due to funds I cannot afford a portable AC unit or lowering my temp in my house. My electric bill is already $200 a month and I can barely make that. Thanks Jeremy any input would help… oh yeah, and i live in Az and its supposed to be 103 all this week… :( so yeah

Jeremy, what was the video Coot made you watch about rocks and the beginning of aminos and life? You mentioned it briefly. This is great content! The whole boron to silicon to calcium progression answers so many questions. Now I know how all that calcium becomes available. I grow in the Take and Bake (4th cycle). It has the rice hulls and basalt. I top dress with Craft Blend. Thanks again! Grow well my friend. DB da OG

Smash that like button for Jeremy the least we can do, share with a friend and do more 😊

Love you guys

Loving this info. Been reading about silica. Besides foliage spray can I add it as a top dress if I have already have my plants in final area or pot?

How much of it does he eat, kind of curious because I'm a welder and I'm around aluminum and stainless steel all the time. Would this help to lock up or remove these metals out of my system?

HEY JEREMY, CAN I GET ANY BENEFITS IF USING SILICON IN COCO COIR WITH HYDRO NUTRIENTS? IT SEEMS LIKE YOU COULD GET SOME BENEFITS.BUT IT ALSO SEEMS LIKE SOME OF IT WOULD WASH OUT ON A DRAIN TO WASTE STYLE GROW. I ALSO DO OUTDOOR THIS TIME OF YEAR (ORGANIC) AND I PLAN ON TRYING SOME OUT THIS SEASON.
