Silas Canary recruitment broke for me, no add'l dialogue

After getting "bring 3 Fertilizer to Silas," he won't interact any longer. E) only causes him to repeat lines like "I been alone before" and "They won't take it from me again," and he keeps wandering around. Not sure how to proceed.
 
Try bringing more than he requested and dropping/picking up/reloading save and repeating. Also just in case, the quest objective is kinda wrong and you need to bring 3 bags of fertilizer, like he says, not just "3 fertilizer".
Edit: didn't notice you were the one behind the awesome ghoul VA's tips hat
 
I have this same problem with Silas Canary. I have 3 bags of fertilizer and I've dropped and picked up saved/loaded, etc. to no avail. Anything else to try?
 
@earthdude What release of SS2 are you using?
Silas Canary's quest had a fix on Version 2.1.0
 
this is the same for me and I'm on 2.1.2

just goes through repated lines of dialogue after the quest starts so you can never return any fertilizer, I have 6 bags in my inventory
 
so he just wants more than 3 but doesnt tell us!
Only more than 3 bags is not enough for him, at least he wants you to have both bags and components of fertilizer in your inventory. I tested it with just having 6 bags of fertilizer and he did not react. The necessary amount might be lower than what I reported (6 bags and 15 components) cause I did not extensivively test what amount is necessary to trigger the quest to finish. At least with 6 bags and 15 components it will work for sure.
 
I successfully completed this quest with this advice. Thanks! It was driving me crazy. In my case, he only takes 3 bags of fertilizer instead of the 5 noted above.
