So what do you guys think of this foliar feed i want to start 2-3times a week. Any tips tricks or advice greatly apreciated!

Fresh Aloe verra gel 5ml/L
Liquid seaweed 1ml/L (ascophyllum nodosum)
Armor silica 0.5ml/L

Thinking about using my tap water i think it might be okay straight out the tap for watering and foliar but ive been leaving it out 24h incase. Its 50ppm and 7.5ph from tap.

Sounds good. Adjust pH to about 6.0 before you spray. Use a drop of dish soap or coco wet as an emulsifier. Spray just before lights go out and/or just before they come on. I prefer to spray in the dark, personally.

Adding something like sea green May help a lot! Something that has stuff like yucca extract, and tons of bacteria will make the plants very happy

Yucca is a wetting agent. It beaks the bond between water molicules so the spray becomes finer. It becomes more easily absorbed.

Sea green has it I’m pretty sure as well as aminos and super high concentrations of bacteria(which produce vitamins as well), and Mendocino honey also has yucca extract in it as well and it’s pretty cheap!

I forgot to mention, of course I am also using nutes in my soil. I am using the AN m-g-b with voodoojuice in veg, also add a tiny bit of silica. Will foliar spraying about 1 time between every watering r be overkill?
