Foliar feeding/spraying

[Mrkline006]

Can you over do it? My schedule is kelp foliar spray once per week but two times in a day. No burns or anything just curious if I’m just wasting product at this point doing it twice or what not. Adding foliar to this grow with everything I’ve seen and heard about all it’s benefits.

I think the kelp is valuable foliar for micro nutes. I use a mix of 1 half teaspoon calcium nitrate and a teaspoon of fish hydrolysate per gallon in veg weekly. In early flower I swap the nitrate out and add a few drops of koolbloom. I use a surfactant I bought from the nursery supply to help it work.

Any feeding method can be overdone.

If I were to try it I would just spray the fan leaves while leaving the bud leaves alone.

Foliar user here: Too often, I 'd say, if the product is any good.

(Saw a pic on site here where the grower had used so much foliar his plant had developed glossy shiny leaves in an attempt to run-off the stuff he was spraying. The soil around his plant was so acid the plant had stopped growing.)

During veg I mist my babies multiple times per day with a mixture of 1/2 ounce of liquid seaweed (maxicrop) per gallon of water. I stop all foliar by the third week of flower, usually not past the second week.

I’m running once per day foliars but only 3 days per week? Right not a little more often because my humidity doesn’t want to raise.
