I have no strict foliar feeding program. I do however give a light dose of Liquid Light. I've found they perk way up under my LED but less so under my HID. I have however seen no negative reaction. Supposedly it allows them to convert more light into energy. I have in the past treated Cal-mag defienciencies in coco with a Cal-mag supplement via foliar feeding. I'm always so concerned about burning my girls I'm hesitant to give much via a foliar.

Used to use neem oil and pro tekt but recently swiched to 13 essentials
Its nano encapsulatd silica and 12 other micro nutes
 
Im amazed no one has mentioned Optic Foilar which is pretty good or Boost by Canna, or True Blooms by Primordial or Foilar by OGbiowar. These are all good products. So many purists these days. "I spray mine with Chicken Poop and Mollasses" Well I dont... :wink:

Kelp extract (i use Nitrozime but there are many others)...fulvic acid (BioAg Fulpower is about the best and most pure - make sure its fulvic. Golden yellow...the best) and yucca as a sticker. These three every 5 to 7 days in veg. The best additive u will ever use. I practically guarantee it. If you want ...add a plant or fish protein hydrolysate (amino acid).
Bioag also makes there Cytoplus soluble that's great for foliar feeding, it's a combination of their amino acid blend and kelp extract.

Cytoplus from BioAg is one of the best products one can use as a weekly foliar spray. About as good as Nitrozime , Fulpower, and yucca. Ive used both and they arw very similar in results.

If you like Botanicare...try Liquid Karma as a foliar weekly. About a tsp a quart spray bottle. Its got the whole kitchen sink in it. Even yucca. Its pricey but as a foliar its got everything. Hormones...amino and humic/fulvic acids..vitamins. Everything. Pretty good as its all you need in a foliar. No need to get different products and mix them yourself. Its all in one bottle.

It sounds like it might even have too much in it......I'm a bit sceptical of some of these products where they pack everything including the kitchen sink into it. I'm not convinced a foliar spray needs everything in it as the plant gets so much via the roots which is the primary method of getting its' requirements.
Just my view/opinion......I've got no evidence either way....

I've tried different products.. liquid light with saturator, triacontanol based things, kelp with fulvic acid, aloe vera based stuff etc. but I've never noticed any benefit. I've stopped using foliar sprays as it's a hassle.

How is it a hassle to spray the leaves of a few plants? That's a genuine question btw :)
I'm not growing outdoors, I'd have to drag every plant to the bathroom to spray them. The smell would get out of control. I could spray them in the tent, but the tent would get dirty and the humidity might cause the carbon filter to leak smells.

Yeah, I see what you mean. I've only got a small number of plants so it is very easy for me.

:peace:

How does humidity cause carbon filters to "leak smells"?
Are you saying it will leak immediately, or are you saying brief periods of high humidity shorten the life of the filter?
