What is Silica and How Does It Help Grow Healthier Cannabis Plants?

Silica, also known as silicon dioxide, is the second most abundant nutrient in the soil. Although the compound is not an essential plant nutrient for cannabis, the plants contain more amounts of it than they do other essential nutrients. In the same vein, cannabis plants do not need silica to survive, but they need it to improve everything about their growth phases; potentially increasing the quality and quantity of their flowers.
