Kind of spooky, not a single soul on here for the past almost five hours?

Does anyone foliar feed their plants?

I only mist in veg. I try to avoid extra mist in my already foggy country during flower!

p.s I was training, having my dinner, and then watching a film...that was roughly 5 hours, lol. Back now!! hehehoho puff puff bubble bubble

I'm thinking about trying foliar feeding. I've been doing a little reading on the subject and it certainly appears that is the best and quickest method to correct any deficiencies in your plants. Aside from that foliar feeding from what I'm reading also helps to protect your plants from pests. It seems the little critters don't like the taste of the nutes on the plant. Seems like a win-win situation. Mist the bottom of the leaves to feed the plants and the tops to protect the plants. Also it's best to mist them first thing in the morning when the lights first come on. The stomata start to close once the temps reach about eighty, so the cooler it is the better for the plant to absorb the nutes.

I know FDD swears by foliar feeding, and it is true IME that foliar feeding does help deficiencies quick. I am still a little skeptikal about doing it indoors though with the lights so close. If i spill a little water on the leaves it burns.

Do you think critters like organic nutes, because they certainly crawl all over my outdoor plants? And I constantly spray them, I am like some annoying thing with my sprey bottle...haha.

I was also reading that spraying most plants with pesticide, be it organic or not, the substance will only last a short while and generally is not a good detterent. You have to wait to get the bugs....But perhaps not. Would be interested to hear more, gotta go though.

Catch you guys later,

Thank You. It's amazing what appears from a not too good photo.

I'm inclined to what Nick said, cause every time I spray I end up with leaf burn.

I sprayed my plants all through veg with no burnt leaves, your lights might be too close if that happens. Maybe. Not sure.
COF those Madonna look beautiful. I was looking at that, killing fields and k.o. kush. Plus I want that Killing Kush they offer as a freebie on sannies site. The killing fields, and anything crossed with it, gets some beautifully colored phenotypes.

I haven't grown the kush yet, but my favorite has been extrema for its soaring, long lasting highs and unique taste. A two hit wonder, cause you wonder why you took the second hit. I just put six into 12/12 with 3 in veg and 12 in the cloner.
I had two different phenos with the one I using having better bud development and high. However, what I have mature is from the other pheno.

I thought enough of the killing field to acquire the fem version and there are two currently in veg. along with 21 other sannie goods.

I have been looking hard at the Sannie gear. I want stuff that is mostly indica and that finishes fast. I know the killing fields is mostly sativa, but some of the phenos I have seen finish rather quick. I like hybrids too, anything in the 9 week range is ok for my setup. So the Madonna and the Extrema are on my list of must tries. Along with the k.o. and killing kush. I will have to make several orders so I can get the freebies I want too. The killing kush and the el monstre are what Im interested in first, then the list is huge and has a lot to offer for future ventures as well.
