Here is my major plant, topped 3 weeks ago.

Grown in MG potting soil with perlite, bat quano, and worm castings added.

About 6 weeks old, started under cfls for the first 4 weeks (grew slowly). Then switched to a 600 watt hps (grew much faster).

Had a few heat issues ran at about 90 degrees f got that fixed now, about 80 f now. She has 4 main colas from using Uncle Ben's topping technique. Thanks Uncle Ben and RUI!!

My question is, should I start foliar feeding her with my 1/4 strength seaweed, fish emulsion spray?

When to feed, during it's 18/6 light cycle?

And how often to feed?

Any help would be verywelcome.

BTW, I only have to water her about once a week or less because I use a moisture meter and I know how horrible overwatering is to my plants, I killed her twin by overwatering, causing nute lock-up, root rot, and general disaster. That is why I will only use foliar feeding, and soil watering, because the soil mix has some nutes already.

My NPK levels in my soil are very good at this point.

I most certainly do foliar feed, since it really helps plants with undiagnosed nutrient disorders. The only time that I have heard that you SHOULD NOT foliar feed is when your buds are big and thick and don't dry out well in between waterings, then you can get bud rot (especially outdoors). Otherwise I have found foliar feeding to be a great way to give the girls a boost.
My formula:
into one gallon of pH balanced water I add
~1 tsp coco-wet (wetting agent)
~1 tsp cold pressed seaweed extract
~1 tsp fish emulsion fertilizer
(on occasion I will add a gram of MgSO4 or CaSO4 if there appears to be a problem, but there should be enough goodies in the seaweed and fish fert)
several drops of Superthrive

Good answer, thanks!

So that's one yes vote.

Not under a hps surely it will burn the leaves as water on leaves acts like a prisom and brown burn marks are left?

OK, you believe that the water will burn the leaves, so I take that as a no vote.

Thanks for responding!

But fish emulsion is all you need. The plants love foliar feeding with the stuff, but it's so stinky! Alaska fish 5-1-1

Warning: never use more than a drop per gallon of super thrive. More isn't better.
