I got a quick question for you guys.
I used the OGbiowar foliar and root tea for the first time last week. Can anybody please tell me, how long after you spray plants with the tea should i leave it on?

I left it on for like2 or 3 days, and then i sprayed it off with water.
Was i supposed to leave it on till the next foliar?
The plants seemed pretty coated and i didnt want them to suffocate or something..?.
This is what they looked like a day after i sprayed them

I also am wondering.. what is the ideal RH% when using the OGbiowar??


Those are the GG4 x Sour D bagseed's and Big E OG's btw.. and here's a few more pics of them.

First, for reference, here's what the GG#4 looks like in my (low wattage) veg room.

GG#4 is easy to ID for me when done. If I see it with another name I would walk then report the changed name. Don't let others make greedy profit off of JW kindness.

Pappy I would rinse that off. If there are any insoluble ingredients in the foilar spray don't use it. It will just sit on the plant.. make sure everything is dissolved in the water you wont get those spot's

Washing foliar sprays off isn't necessary. With OG biowar you are applying bacteria and fungi that are colonizing the plants. I would say you either didn't mix it well enough or didn't dilute it enough. IDK what's in your mix or how you apply it, but I don't get spots like that when I foliar. I use a tea brewer and let it brew for about 48hs.

Mixing instructions for OGBiowar ..

1) Scoop 1 tsp of the FOLIAR PACK per 1 liter of non chlorinated water.

2) Mix well, breaking up all the clumps so that the solution looks nice and cloudy.

3) Let the solution settle for 3-5 minutes. The talc carrier will slowly settle to the bottom, but the microbes will stay suspended in the water.

4) Pour or scoop the liquid off the top, avoiding the majority of the talc carrier sitting on the bottom. The talc carrier is safe, so don't worry about getting a little on the plants or in the soil. It is best to avoid the majority though because sometimes the talc carrier can clog sprayers and cause soil to drain slowly. When you are done rinse the talc carrier from the mixing vessel.

Thanks bobble:tiphat::thank you:

I thought it didnt seem right to rinse it off.
I have used AACT'S for a long time and never had to wash it off.
This was my first time brewing up the ogbiowar though. Maybe I didnt mix it right, like u said.
I followed the directions to a T.
Molasses, worm poo, and a 4 hour brew.
(Seems like such a short brew.
I do the the aacts for 48-72 hours.)

Ill try again.
Ill mix it better and see if I get different results.
It definitely didnt kill my fungus gnats.

Its talcum powder pappy, let it settle or strain, and scoop off the top if you don't want dalmatian weed plants lol.

That stuff does work for sure. I hate how he increased the price though :(

I also brewed mine for at least 12hrs, sometimes not at all. I never noticed any thing about 4hrs tbh.

That's why I said to rinse it off. You should never see anything left on the plant after a foliar spray

Unless you get out a sponge and hand wash each leaf it isn't gonna come off. It'll disappear when you re-wet the plant but once its dry the spots come back. Its no big deal and won't do any thing to your plants.... It just looks unsightly.

I can get it off. Once it's wet again there just particles sitting on the leaf. I m picky I will get it off. If it was a little I wouldn't bother but that not a little.

I run my tea through a window screen before spraying. Talcum powder would fall through, but I'm sure a lot of it gets caught up the EWC, alfalfa, etc..

I've moved on from OG Biowar and I'm using Spectrum, micro5000, mycogenesis, biogenesis, and pepzyme C. The microbes are packed in higher quality materials like diatomaceous earth, humates from leonardite and whey protein vs talcum powder... I have no experience with it other than appearances, and it appears to be a superior product.

Gorilla Glue #4 in 400 gallon container, just transplanted 8 of these a few days ago and they are loving life. The glue seems to be quite the outdoor strain.

Thanks guys.

I guess i didnt follow the directions as well as i thought.. I totally missed the last step about letting it SETTLE. Whoops.
I turned off the air pump and used it asap.
It even says "LET SETTLE" in red, in the directions.:wallbash:


Very nice plant Scrhews :respect:
Gonna be a monster.

Can you strain the biowar foliar through a fine bubble bag like 25 micron to save waiting for it to settle and scooping it off? Thanks

just follow the directions lol..I let things like that settle for a while. Then suck it off with a big syringe no needle.

No big deal pappy we all make mistakes.
