So I've been tending to my seedlings and patiently waiting for the time to come to transplant for the first round (happening tonight!). In the interim, I've been reading up a lot on teas/foliar sprays, in an effort to come up with a simple yet effective regimen to use throughout veg and flower.

With that being said, I was hoping to get a little feedback as to the best uses/ways of application for the below products-

BioAg Ful-Power
BioAg TM-7
Aloe Vera flakes
Coconut water powder

At this point, my plan is to apply the following once weekly-

Compost tea (EWC and molasses, maybe some Neptune's Fish and Seaweed)
A foliar of something
An additional supplemented watering

The last two are where I need a little bit of help. What would you guys recommend as far as foliars and supplemental waterings go with what I have on hand? Is there anything else worth picking up that falls in line with the "simple yet effective" plan? Thanks!

I do a bunch of Foliar sprays, but they are specific to the line of nutrients I use.

It has been recommended to stop foliar a couple weeks into flower.

one you could use is
4 to 5 Ml liquid kelp
4 to 5 ml BioAg Ful-Power
1.25 ml or ¼ tsp of wetting agent/surfactant

Its nice for small seedlings.

the nutes you use should hopefully have instructions for using some of them as a foliar.

That's all I know

[Levitationofme]

add to 1 qt of water and PH to 6.5

5 gallons of water
1.5 cups alfalfa meal
1/4 cup kelp meal

I brew/aerate for 24-36 hours and apply. No PHing required, just use non-chlor water

Hands down fish emulsions. A foliar feed of these particular derivitives eliminates the need to mix a seperate nutrient solution at all.

i agree with this even as a soil drench, i use just a couple drops with watering during veg

Appreciate the advice guys. Just got my DIY airlift brewer set up this weekend, think I'm going to brew a simple EWC/molasses tea to kick things off this weekend.

Most of my foliars I don't brew. Honestly I don't see the need, we generally want the nutrients from the foliars not looking to create big populations of microbes. I use a blender and do different mixes depending on the stage the plant is in.

Kelp meal, aloe vera, ful power and agisil is my go to with additional botanicals/neem oil/essential oils mixed in occasionally

I'm just an ignorant newb but I've been researching and 'trying' to learn. I've killed many plants so take what I write with a grain of salt.

So far, the only things I'm foliar feeding with are a weak solution of humic/fulvic acid, kelp extract and aloe vera surfactant. I sometimes add neem oil to control insects. I sometimes add molasses to soil feedings but never to foliar feedings.

This is a really useful thread ...thanks
