LUI Day 18

LUI Day 18

today we gave the LUI’s a light spray with a liquid kelp solution. . . . this is a form of foliar feeding. . . . for new growers this means our plants will actually absorb nutrients and hormones directly through their leaves. . . . first the lights in the grow area were turned off as a precaution. . . . cold water hitting hot lamps can actually cause a bulb to explode so this is primarily to protect our light bulbs. . . . under intense light it’s sometimes possible for water spots to occasionally cause leaf burning. . . . so turning off the lamps also protect the plants. . . .

1 teaspoon of MaxiCrop liquid Kelp concentrate was then poured into a gallon of water and mixed. . . . a quart of this mixture was poured into a spray bottle a fine mist was applied to all plants in our grow portion of our garden (not the bloom room). . . . all leaves were thoroughly drenched top and bottom with the liquid seaweed solution until moisture dripped freely off the leaf tips. . . .

once the plants were thoroughly soaked we increased air circulation in the grow room for a hour until the plants had dried. . . . then we turned the grow lights back on. . . . a nice leaf drenching foliar feeding is just that simple. . . . kelp is magical stuff. . . . it contains a complete range of micronutrients and also provides a nice boost of potassium. . . . kelp also contains some very nice plant growth hormones. . . . applying kelp sprays can speed plant growth and actually increase final plant yields. . . . it also helps to provide increased resistance to pests, diseases, and a variety of stresses. . . .
