Can I spray foliage with buds?

Hello again,
This time I have a calcium deficiency. no doubts.
I bought Foli-Cal (Liquid) online and turns out it needs to be sprayed on the foliage. I have buds galore, and don't know if they can be sprayed. The deficiency is pretty bad looking at the spots on the leaves, so I need to do something.
Can I spray them with the Foli-Cal?
thanks

shouldn't be a problem, try to get as little on the buds as possible, that product probably leaves a residue behind. it shouldn't be toxic, but it may taste bad, and will make things look "dull"

that's not a very good picture, and i'm not sure that's actually calcium deficiency. try to get a better pic if you can.

I looked and that was the only picture i have. I thought I had more. It looks like the picture of calcium deficiency on the photos of leaf problems. The photo is clear when it's not enlarged. My camera is pretty old. (I won't use the phone camera for obvious reasons).

Do you see what else it could be? I've had magnesium deficiency (for sure), nitrogen also (yellow leaves everywhere. I fixed that finally. It's hard to figure too much/ too little on the nutes. triail & error. I wish there was an easier way). Last year I OVER fertilized and had yellow leaves everywhere. It was only my first grow with 'named' seeds. I'd always just planted bag seeds before and had almost NO trouble with yellow leaves or anything. Once I started paying for "good" strains of seeds, I've had problems.

I've got plenty of buds on the plants with the spots on the leaves. It's "Gold Leaf", designed by Robert Bergman of ILGM, and the buds are so heavy that one branch already broke off. The branch was probably no bigger than a pipe cleaner and had (wet) at least 1/2 oz of bud on it (or more). sad to lose. I've tied them up. Looks like spider webs all through it with twine laced all over . It's not a real neat job, but the stalks are being held up. Next, I'll need to tie up the Trainwreck. It's the type with lighter buds, not the heavy colas, so shouldn't have such a problem.

Anyway, had to rant a little. thanks.

the spots look a little large for calcium "freckles". if they don't seem to be getting worse, i wouldn't worry about it.

What reasons?

they're paranoid about exif data giving away their location. they have apparently never bothered to look up how to turn it off on their phone, and aren't aware that the site strips data from photos before they're posted.

@Roger A. Shrubber , no, "they" didn't know the settings could be turned off to lose the location. And, "they" also aren't aware that the site strips the data. In fact, when I brought it up before, I was told that all the data is on the photos and there is no way to lose it. And, that anyone could find out where I was. SO, I was given poor info. Could you please help me figure it out? The other reason I don't want to use my phone is that I really don't want the photos on it. Even when deleted, they're on there for 30 days. I live in the south........... not a good thing to have found on you.
thanks for understanding.

thanks, I'll do that. I'd prefer not to spray the buds. I'm on my way to the grow site right now to fertilize. If it's no worse, I'll leave it alone.

google your phone model and "turning off exif". there ought to be directions, never met the phone yet that couldn't have it turned off.
also, this site (no guarantees about other sites) strips the exif data from photos before they publish them. they pretty much make a copy of your photo with no data, and that's what gets onto the page.
and just so you know, as long as your phone is locked, you don't have to unlock it for the police. they shouldn't even ask, unless they're already onto you about something. my phone would be quite incriminating, but i don't really worry about it. if i do something bad enough for them to get my phone from me, i'm probably screwed already anyway

If you live in the US...the authorities can not compel you to unlock your phone. It takes a court order. If that happens, you are already in trouble without the consideration of the photos.
Now...do not cross country borders. The foreign country could demand its contents to allow you into their country. The US can not demand such upon US citizens re-entering the country.


FYI...on an iPhone... just push the on/off button 4 times in a row and it turns off the fingerprint/ face scan readers, and requires the pass code.

Depends of how far along you are into flower. I don’t spray after the third week since that’s when buds start having moisture trapping crevices which could lead to mold.

Thanks. I decided against spraying. The buds are pretty far along. They're supposed to be harvested in October, but I think they'll be ready in Sept. They're so heavy, I have twine holding them up all over the place! It looks like a spider web! But, I hope it'll do the trick. I already lost one small branch. It wasn't wider than a pipe cleaner, but had about 1/2 oz.(wet wt) of bud on it. Even though it's not ready, I smoked some of it, and it actually packed a little bit of a punch. I'm looking forward to the finished product! My first try with Gold Leaf.
