HOW TO FERTILIZE YOUR PLANTS WITH A PLUG-IN AIR IONIZER

After thunderstorms, nitrogen content is raised in the air I remember my buddy who's a etymoligist told me that
I was trying to be polite lol. Lightning creates ozone by corona effect (the discharge of high voltage). That is the reason for the smell. Ion generators are used to clean the air of contaminates by allowing unwanted particles to stick together and become heavy and fall out if air. I think!!! Lol. No ideal about the other stuff re: nitrogen. Probably doesn't produce an amount that would be very useful imo.

old skool gardeners actually notice a lushness and healthy looking garden after a thunder storm,,,

I know a way for your plants to pull the N from the air without you use any power.

A product by "Blooming Blossoms" called "BioNatural NutriFoliar" a biological leaf inoculant that is a foliar nitrogen fixer, OMRI listed. Azotobacter chroococcum KKM F 25 spores is all it is.

Legumes.
It is actually the bacteria they have a symbiotic relationship with.

Cover cropping and using green manure are ancient ideas from millennia ago. You plant clover/vetch/sunn hemp and a few comfrey crowns, you can rehabilitate terrible soil in a season or two.

I plant cover crop in my vegetable garden anytime a space is fallow.

Now that this has degenerated into a bash thread I fear my question is to late. But here I go, is the smell after a thunderstorm not ozone? And yes if nothing else you'll have better air quality in the room.
Yep, no smells apart from thunderstorms and you will also have a Bactria/Fungus free air! too much can burn the leaves but unlike any other gasses it dissipates and will not build up.

iv got one in my tent, the air smells clean, and it does something to the co2 in the air so its more readily available to the plant?
