Clone Feeding question?

[shrigpiece]

iv got 24 white widow clones that where taken 3 weeks into flower. im aware of the dangers but they are doing well. im aware of the slow root growth because of the time i cut the clones. im a bit concerned that the little clones might starve to death before the root system has formed. will a mild organic fertilizer foliar spray suffice? im thinking 0.5 mil to a litre. the fert i had in mind is Biobizz fish mix. any advice welcome. +rep for help

I don't think clones can even absorb nutes until they have roots. They use stored energy to grow roots. I don't know anyone who uses nutes on clones. I've cloned flowering plants without nutes, same results as from vegetative clones.

Yes, you can foliar fed them if they are having an extended period in the Humidity Dome. When mine start to yellow or bleach out I use 1/8 strength in foliar spray.
