Magnesium sulphate is good for a foliar feed , if you have a deficiency and you need quick results and also as a help to actually know if it is mag def..
But it still doesn't fix the root cause of the problem.

I do this on occasion, when transplanting a plug ( solo cup plant ) , I mist the roots.
I also foliar at times during veg and transition (flip) . Kelp has growth hormones / micronutrients and host of other goodies.

Some people have reported doing foliar feeds with aloe/water mixes and compost tea in some of the Organics threads. I’m not very familiar with it, but figured it was worth mentioning for some further reading.

i never foliar feed but only because i forget the magnesium. but to feed i don't see the point.
i wonder how many of you foliar feed in flower and then smoke indoor grow. there is no rain to wash it away

Flower - never. Even when peeing on them.
Foliar solution left in bottle gets used as a soil drench.
At most - i add my dry fertilizer to container and follow it with a kelp / water chaser. Then back to bowl.

No. It's only really effective for a quick fix if you have some sort of nutrient lockout going on in your soil. But if your soil is healthy foliar feeding won't do anything of benefit.

I foliar feed kelp right in the beginning of veg, and again right before flower and Epsom salts once or twice during veg. Also they will get a blast or two of silica, because it's more efficiently absorbed by the leaves then through the roots. I also use floraflex nutes and they have a veg and bloom foliar feed, I've both used and not used them and even with only a few applications I do notice a difference in how fast they'll flip to bloom and start growing bud. And how much more green they stay in veg when they're growing super fast.
Never spray anything in flower after about week 3 to be safe. If there's little bud clusters with hairs then don't spray.
Also if you have humidity issues and crowding spraying can do more harm then help.

I could say that I get better results when i foliar feed overall. Is it whopping differences....? Hmmm maybe not so much? There's times to spray and times not to. You don't HAVE to spray to still have a successful grow. Sometimes I don't spray but I noticed they take longer to flip to flower l when I don't.
