TheFlyingBuddha Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 As long as the plants respond well, thats the biggest indicator of success, or at least non-failure. Different fertilizers call for different ratios for foliar feeding, its completely dependent on the nutrient your working with. There are many, many varied opinions on foliar feeding, when to do it, when not to do it, the conditions in which its acceptable, etc. I personally don't foliar feed unless i'm having another problem in which the roots are unable to take up nutes (nute burn, bugs, etc). I also try to avoid foliar feeding while in late flower. TFB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFlyingBuddha Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 imho i don't see why one would want to spray with straight water unless you are trying to wash something off of the plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
