I guess you could do an experiment.....

I was reading somewhere that too much silver in public waters might be a concern if they kill off the beneficial bacteria that roots need for getting food. OTOH, I also read that someone was putting it on their plants? maybe- more info needed....

Has anyone had experience with hydroponics and CS?  I am growing an herb garden with the AeroGarden and they have all kinds of safeguards so the water doesn't grow algae.  I called them up and asked them why I have to keep the paper over the plants base and they said if the water gets too much light it grows algae.  I asked her why you can't simply put silver in the water.  She kind of giggled and said she didn't know what kind of effect that would have on the plants. 
 
If you can use CS, how much is ok? before it messes with the minerals in the water and isn't good for the plants anymore?
