Kelp foliar spray during flower?

Arcadium
Arcadiumstarted grow question 10 months ago
I've been spraying weekly with local organic kelp throughout veg, I've heard it's even better during flower. Any issues keeping up with kelp foliar spray right up until harvest?

foliar sprays are more about you than for the plant. i wouldn't spray anythign on developing buds, since i plant to ignite and inhale that plant material into my lungs. having a bunch of other random stuff in it is not my cup of tea. organic does not mean safe, LOL... plenty of organic things are incredibly poisonous or carcinogenic. it's a term that has no relevance to cause and effect of such things. foliar sprays are a fart-sniffing activity :P bwahaha. (unless there's actually somethign wrong with your plant, i.e. just doing it as habit is not needed if providing a proper diet through the roots, which is the best way to feed the plant under healthy conditions. sometimes, with a few molecules that can fit through the stomata or absorb into the plant one way or another, which is not true of all of the nutrients nor their various variants that are plant available under normal circumstances, it can provide faster relief for a deficiency by applying a foliar spray. if fed properly, this should not be needed whatsoever. it will not provide any benefits if the plant is otherwise fed properly.

Nothing wrong with keeping up your routine of foliar spray just stop it after the first few weeks of flower so you don’t get the rot

Hi. I just checked your wk. You're only in pre flower..so yes, foliar can be applied right up until the last days of pre flower. There's no risk of rot as calyxs have formed or will form trapping in moisture. So, its safe but only the 1st 10days after that the early parts that'd of flipped just be careful ok. After the main stretch plant wide has stopped cut all sprays. I get it rains and all on outdoor plants but this is a natural thing the plant absorbs not kelp though. So good to go for now. Good Growing
