Does anyone have any simple homemade foliar spray recipes for the veg phase?
there should be some here someplace. Kelp, guano earth worm castings (EWC) or compost teas make great foliar feed. Lots of recipes. Basically, put the nutrients in a sock (or pour freely) into a tote of water. I add a biotic formula of plant food for additional bacteria and a quarter to half cup of unsulphered mioolasses , 75-80ยบ with air bubblers for two days. Strain, dilute 4:1 with water and spray.
I just tried the old milk with water trick for my baby cause it was drooping quite a bit for some reason seems to have worked ok but this crappy well water is doing a number on me
old sour milk on my plants? no thanks.
No its super diluted like 1 part milk 5 parts water? I've been told it doesn't get the sour smell but people could also be wrong I guess I'll find out in the next few days and my plant is still in veg so I doubt I'll taste anything at the end
The old milk thing has been around for years, but... used in new gardens to grow algae/ moss for an older, more established look. Sprayed on status & stepping stones.
---- back when this product first came on the market, it was promoted on either QVC or the home shopping net work, so I tried it & fell in love with the stuff! It's called Spray n Grow. Cheleted (spelling) iron & other organic elements & goodies. After using for a few years, they greatly increased their products. Now they have organic nutrients called Bill Perfect Fertilizer, Bills Perfect Grow & Bills Perfect Flower. Follow the directions for the Spray n Grow, then add the Bills. Foliar feed, root feed. Bills is even recomended for hydroponic. Love this stuff. Can beat the quality for the price. Just don't use the recomended Cocoa Wet, as it burns cannabis. All organic, Bills is formulated wuth fish & other good stuff. Shovel, you've tried a lot of stuff. Ever try this? If you guys are interested, just google Spray n Grow. :)
It looks pretty great nice site they have but I'm on a pretty tight budget considering I hawked $150 just on a led comet and its coming up on holiday season.......cyber sales bout to be on! Maybe Thats when I'll stock up on some stuff if hydro-sites do that sale but other than that is rather make my own foliar spray I've heard of making a green tea food with 1 bag and 2 gallons of waterQuote:

A throw back from my hippie days I guess. Ahhh.. what the hell is a led comet? (LOL! You'll have to excuse me if I'm showing my age. I'll be 60 in 4 months, & some of this new stuff you kids have eludes me!)~~~PEACE!~~~
Oh damned ! Did you mean LED, as in grow lights? Here I mis-read that as the word led since it wasn't capital letters! I was thinking it had something to do with some rapper!!!! OMG! MAYBE IT'S ALZHEIMERS!!!! LMAO!!!!
Yes I did mean LED lol this thing has crazy lumens
Well funny thing turns out I don't need to foliar feed I was just trying to foliar feed because my baby was looking pretty sad but I just raised that light up and she perked right up in a matter of hours but I still may consider a tea or the spray n grow
