Foliar WATERING ------- Simple PH question ------ Thanks for stoping by ----

Good Morning Green Thumbs,

Quick Question,

I have some seedlings that are just shy of 4 weeks old, My question is this,

Do I need to PH Correct My RO water To say 5.5 -5.8 before spraying on the leaves.

Out of the RO My water is at 6.4.


They are currently in 3x3 rockwool cubes.

Thanks for sharing your time, and knowledge, Have a great sunday folks.

I do not foliar feed at all, but I would think pH would be of little concern as the leaf pores are getting the nutrients and not the roots.

I'll see if I can find some more info!

regards,

No that PH will be fine for foliar feeding. PH is scale specific for nutrient uptake through the roots. I never ph when foliar feeding. Peace CG

Good to know

We're here to help

Dutch Masters says to not PH water when using foliar sprays, liquid light, saturator, etc. Like closet gardener said, ph is only a concern for nutrient uptake through the root system.

I don't foliar feed at all .... should I ??

You can if you want, but the majority of what's here to read, will be people who only do it to remedy a problem, not an everyday procedure.
