cool mist humidifier w/ liquid seaweed

im wondering if this would even work...

could i mix some liquid seaweed into my water thats in my cool mist humidifier and would the plants possibly absorb it or will it just clog my humidifier?

do you think this will work?

Foliar feeding isn't necessary unless you have a deficiency that needs to be resolved right away. A weekly feeding of liquid seaweed on the roots will be just fine. Save that humidifier for the winter months when it gets dry in your grow room.

burnone, its bad to foliar feed with a 1/2 strength seaweed mixture every day? i did this

day 1: foliar-seaweed/fulvic acids (diluted at 1/4 str)
day 2: foliar-seaweed/fulvic acids (diluted at 1/2)
day 3: plain h2o
day 4: foliar-seaweed/fulvic acids (diluted at 1/2 str)
day 5: foliar-seaweed/fulvic acids (diluted at 1/2 str)
day 6: plain h2o

do you think this schedule is detrimental to my plants health? it was going to go by that schedule but if you think it needs adjustment, im open ears.

when my plants are regular size, im going to give them full strength and not 1/4 or 1/2 etc...

No it won't hurt 'em, I foliar feed but plenty of people don't because the plant is fully capable without it; it's just a detail if you want to be that detailed.

EDIT: You do need to be more careful with foliar if you are using salt/chemical nutes/extras!

Well, you're right about fulvic acids. That's what you want in a foliar nute. Fulvic acids and can be absorbed through the leaves. Be sure not to foliar feed after mid flowering. It can leave a bad taste in your mouth.

ok thanks for the advice. i guess thats logical. bud rot is a nasty thing.

do you think also spraying some of the fulvic on my topsoil is a good idea because i heard is helps kill bacteria and keep insects away...

what do you think?
