I'm just beginning week three of flower and got some snow storm ultra. I read the foliar spray works well, but I can't apply the nute that way because of temp problems in my growspace. I run a deep water culture with three res' and have to apply SSU directly to the res. I can't seem to get a straight answer on any forum really.. Help is appreciated.

It also says tho that SSU should not be aerated because of undesireable bacteria growth. They say it can sometimes be prevented with addition of 1tsp of 35% hydrogen peroxide per 20 gallons of water. Or it says to add it 2 days before you change your res and limit it to 1tsp/gallon.

Hope this helps!

you might not be getting a straight answer, because you are not asking a question. LOL.

anyhoo...
I just got a free sample of this stuff, and started feeding it thru roots on half of our girls @wk 6 flower in pro mix. Nothing to see yet. (I started with half of what the container suggested.) I would be interested to see how this preforms in dwc with airstones... until then, I will not be adding this to my res.

Awesome. Thank you Chem. And yes asd.. It WAS time for me to ask my own question. Ha. I also run bennies (mychorrizae, EWC, ZHO) so I'm thinking foliar spray will be best. The dose is 1ml per gallon for the mix but I've never applied a foliar spray before.. Whats the best way? Sometimes I hear just the fan leaves... other times I here the underside of the leaves and never the buds.... others I hear just spray the plant and don't over think... Any advice guys? Plus my temp can get pretty high...In the 90's.

i say just spray the plant and dont over think it, unless your fighting pests. your biggest concern while doing this during flower is mold. How's your humidity?

Eh at 90 degrees that could bake onto your leaves so make sure you spray at night or raise raise your hood and I would say if it's synthetic I would do once a week at max. But watch it after one and judge accordingly.
