can you foliar feed cal mag?

can you foliar feed cal mag? gen hydro brand to be exact

I do personally, as long as theyr atleats 2 1/2 3 weeks old if you you literally like half a dozen drops in a waterbottle with your veg or flower nutrient and put about a dozen drops of that in there put a spritzer on the waterbottle and mist them to your desire as long as its ph neutral. Just alternate between your nute spray solution and pure water. Id probably do it once for every 3 sprays. It seems to be pretty beneficial and helps with defficiencies yet is relatively difficult to burn them with. Goodluck God bless.

You can foliar feed any nutrient brand at an appropriate strength. I think it is important to note that pH should be slightly acidic and not neutral as above poster stated.

well anywhere from 5.8 to 6.5 is pretty appropriate.

That sounds good

So should I just test what I'm foliar feeding and use ph up-down like norm? I usually just put a couple drops of b1 thrive alive in and mist. But I'd love to do cal mag also.

Don't wast your cal-mag, plants uptake very little when sprayed you are better just water them with it.

I also foliar feed my vegging girls. I use General Organics cal-mag myself.

Only foliar feed calmag when you have a calcium/magnesium def.

Plant absorbs what little stays on the leaf less u us a wetting agent like soap but I don't like that I lift me canopy n spray under the leafs where the stomatitis are then all over n by the times is there but if u do it when lights out as that's when oxy is expelled from the separation of hydrogen to oxygen but I'm babbling so stomatitis open then u foliar feed for max absorbing, watering can take 2-3 days to see the results which would have detrimental effect on ur return so foliar for a quick hit then add to feeding schedule I add Calmag every feed in small doses


Stomata*** Damn predictive txt

Just what I wanted to hear, my girls are suffering

Try cal mag powder from bio ag received samples and knowledge about foliar feeding cal mag at the growers convention in Indy. This is how alot of production growers are achieving record yields lately.I Myself personally do not foliar feed at all though and have great results using pbp bloom calmag+ from botanicare, ginormous from Humboldt for pk boost awesome product no other booster like it out there no growth regulators and salt free and don t forget the most important of all microbes. Either mammoth p or photosynthesis plus from microbe life if you're not running either of these products buck up pick 1 and you'll see the difference in a week and never go without them. Also don't over nute your ladies never exceed 850ppm and that will also send your yields soaring. Less is deffinently more when it comes to nutrients

Also no need to ph solution...u ph for the rootzone not foliar

I did not know that about the pH and the root zone kind of makes sense to me too

When I give my girls a spray and I started doing it right after lights out and it seemed to do OK

Yeah man thats cool.
Look at it this way, the leaves get their energy from the sun.
The smart little plants responsible with its energy reserves so she stores half her energy for later and uses whats left to seperate the two hydrogen (they use this hydrogen later btw) from the oxygen n spit that shit out the stomatas.
Also they use their stomatitis to suck in that naughty co2. So the stomatas open and close throughout the day be it releasing moisture or sucking in cos or expelling oxygen so yeah foliar whenever.
I foliar on lights out so they have time to absorb all the goodies or just before lights on when they cant burn n use a fine mist apar to avoid droplets.
