Yes my friend in veg I spray daily with velokelp from remo and it makes my young girls explode also I've used optic foliar in flower but I feel the kelp I say benefits right in front of my eyes

I use bio bizz fishmix during veg stage very week mix 1mm per litre.Then I use power to bloom by growing edge technologies with umph power foliar spray 4 days later in low light or last thing b4 lights go off. normally week 4 or 5 depending on strain

Put some kelp in your optic. I mix my own with the transport, rev and watts then I add some kelp and a couple drops of EM-1 they suck that shit up and love it.

Thanks,
That will be a learning experience, for myself and others.
My concern stems from the fear that the auxins would make the plants stretch.
I grow dwarfs, and pushing them to grow more than their genes prescribe might be an issue with growth.

I discussed this with @Waira a couple of days ago , using Fulvic Acid as a foliar,...
And the word was,...go for it man!...the plants love it.
The solution I'm using is tap water with a little vitamin C to neutralise the chlorine, and 1/8 teaspoon in 1 gallon.


So so far, I've readjusted my light timer from 4am to 10pm, so I can spray before going to bed.
I have to admit, the plants are doing pretty good in the last couple of days

We always tend to think of feeding plants via the roots.

I spent the better part of 10 years in the agricultural world, and remember a presentation from someone like Bayer or Monsanto ( ), claiming 15% of plants nutrients are absorbed via leaves.

So foliar makes sense to me anyways.

I use fulvic+kelp during flower to the end of week 3,

fulvic+kelp+Monopotassium Phosphate for clones/seeds/mothers

I do the those every 3 days

Can you tag me in that post? I’d like to see the difference too.

I use foliar feeding to build-up calcium, magnesium and trace element levels, besides supplementing base nutes. I generally add CALiMAGic and Earth Juice Microblast, plus a dose of N, whether as a high N cal-mag, such as Adv. Nutrient's Sensi Cal Mag Xtra (4-0-0) or the N part of Adv. Nutrient's 2 part pH Perfect base nutes, doing this using Transfer/Optic Foliar to feed through top surface of the leaves. Contrary to all recommendations I've seem, I just use everything at the same level I use in regular feeds; and I've seen no downsides, such as excesses, from this.

I may do this 2x/week from sprouting to early bloom. If a plant is more advanced in bloom and looks needy, I sometimes will let the aerosol droplets fall onto the plant. That way any wetted surfaces will be well exposed to air (and with my tent relative humidity at best usually getting up to 40%, I don't worry about this causing mildew problems).

Definitely check out Transfer/Optic Foliar and its feedback here on AFN. I think it is more effective than traditional bottom-of-leaves foliar feeding. You can even see it working - sprayed fluid disappearing into the leaves way faster than it could ever dry from air exposure.
