i have read about it! but some articles recommend everyday, some every otherday, and others say dont do it. just throu the soil. but i also read going throu the soil takes longer to reach the leaves versus folair feeding.. usin miracle gro 24-8-16.. ok and its only being used half strength on 1 of four pet plants.. new grower i am.. i welcome any comments help needed. thanx in advance:thumbsup: do you guys recommend the folair or just throu the roots??

you should NOT fertilize in the first two weeks of growth ... the plant carries it's own nutes for that, you can easily kill them ... once things sort themselves out, use your Miracle-Gro at 1/2 strength ... spray both sides of the leaves, ONCE a week ... spray them in the morning, or when their lights come on ... doubtful you will need to feed with your groundwater ... discontinue if the leaf tips start to turn brown ... don't over-love your plants, they do best when left alone ... :smokin:
