Foliar feed overwatered plants?

If your soil is drenched and you suspect your plants are having issues with deficiencies/lockout because of the overwatered soil. Can you foliar feed the plants without causing additional harm?

I was wondering because since the roots may not be breathing too well, the leafs are doing all the work. I'm not sure if that would be detrimental or not at this point.

I personally wouldnt add any moisture right now if you've been overwatering... Let them dry out until they're extra thirsty, and have some good room temp water ph'd or a compost tea ready to go on the very next *NEEDED* feeding.

I see your logic, kind of like priming a pump, right? Im not really sure of the correct answer but if the leaves look as if they are capable of photosynthesis and it were my plant i would probably try a light foliar and see how she responds.

you cannot fert all nutes, only N, Mg, Fe, S and some others.
if you do, do with lightsout
wont incapacitate a *roots* ability to breath...
