Fish Emulsion??

whats up....starting to focus more on vegging again...seems there for a while i got a little slack on the veggin stage cause i was just wantin to get to budding..lol...dumb ass i know...but anyways...im all organic now, and i got some Alaska Fish Emulsion 5-1-1....i figured about 1 tbsp per gallon when i feed the plant, but my question is how good of a foliar spray is it....i figured it would work well, but ive heard about mixing molasses in with your foliar sprays to help plants take better advantage of the nutrients given by opening the pores up on the leaves or something....so whats the best way to use it as a foliar spray...my idea was to mix up the 5-1-1 at about 1tbsp per gallon like normal, then in the same gallon add about 1/2 to 1 tbsp of molasses, then pour the mix into my mister....someone let me know if im on the right track...thanx a bunch

I'm working with the same nutes
Still testing

I've never foliar fed with fish emulsion and have great results just putting it in the soil. it is plenty stinky there! And that is where the molasas shines to feed those microbes too. I have not read about too many foliar feeding with it. If you are going to try that foliar feed you mentioned you may want to dilute it a little more first time to play it safe.

I've had great results foliar feeding with guano tea's and that is what I would suggest if you are looking to add something else.

right on...thanx for the advice yall

I've read a few bits about foliar with fish and it's generally not the best for foliar. Algae, guano, wormcastings, molasses in a 24 hour bubbler makes a good foliar. Foliar for veg. I'n bloom I might add some nutes via foliar but i use a soft bristle brush and brush it on the medium and large leaves to avoid drenching my buds. I only grow a few plants so it's not very time consuming. When I do foliar I usually go very dilute on the solution.

Foliar is not super essential IMO. Great for quickly boosting a mineral deficiency. Mostly I add my tea to the soil.

Recommend you check out endomycorrhizae for soil inoculation if you haven't already.

Cool.
