Yes it does.
Foliar feeding is a ‘by-pass’ approach, overtaking conventional ground fertiliser applications whenever it does not perform well enough. Foliar application overcomes soil fertilisation limitations like leaching, insoluble fertiliser precipitation, antagonism between certain nutrients, heterogenic soils unsuitable for low dosages, and fixation/absorption reactions like in the case of phosphorus and potassium. Foliar feeding can also be used to overcome root problems when they are suffering from limited activity due to low/high temperatures (<100, >400C), lack of oxygen in flooded fields, nematode attack damaging the vascular system, and a decrease in root activity during the reproductive stages where more of the photosynthetic creation is transferred for reproduction with less for root respiration (Trobisch and Schilling, 1970). Foliar feeding has proved to be the fastest way of curing nutrient deficiencies and boosting plant performances at specific physiological stages.
I would definetly foliar feed it as proven worthy by experts. Use at most 1/3 of recomended dosage by nutrients supplier. Do you know how to foliar feed properly? What are your feeding habits?
