Just wondering if anyone has any input on using regular sprayers to do your foliar spray or pest control vs a Fogger like this http://www.hydroponics.net/i/133067?

Thanks guys!

If your treating for possible pest eradication or control its wise to use a sprayer because its more precise and can be used with plants in your grow area. Foggers are great for room bombardment when there are no plants in there. A fogger used when plants are around not wise because it can be phytotoxic.

i've foliar sprayed for years using it a kind of a supplement. you will still need to fertilize throught the soil. GL

Mold is hard enough to control without spraying water on the plant and buds. Outdoor in summer its ok.

Thank you! absolutly do run a drip/res type of feeding system. Just use sprayers for supplements and pest control. Thanks again for the Reply!

So do you not use any type of Foliar spray throughout your grow? I have always (growing for about 6years) used some type of supplemental foliar spray like magic green, or neem or some type of spinocide for pest control.

Thanks again for the Input!!
