No problem Sean., I didn' think you did. Just authoritative. I need to learn
too.
I am no chemist, or soil scientist either, for that matter. I just
regurgitate what I read and am told. I can be wrong about everything except
politics and religion.

Silica must get into plants somehow. Horsetails "bark/skin" is like
sandpaper made up mainly of silica. It was once called "Scouring Rush" and
was used like steel wool to clean pots and pans.
