Re: Foliar feeding-does it really make a difference?
Hey mate if you are going to foliar cal/mag mix it @4ml per litr or your wasting your time. Keep in mind that a lot of important microbes inhabit the phylosphere and if you spray them with synthetics it may upset them. Sea weed is ok as a foliar. Not sure why foliar feeding would help with pests GMO.

I agree a high dose calmag is well worth while. I tend to go in at 3ml per but will go harder next timeHobbit wrote:Hey mate if you are going to foliar cal/mag mix it @4ml per litr or your wasting your time.

Just generally raising humidity and having a less appealling environment for arid condition loving buggers like them mites pal
