Foliar Nutrients - Organic Garden Fertilizer

Natural organic foliar nutrients for corn, rhubarb, cabbage, potatoes, flowers & more.

Foliar applied macro & micronutrients can be the most efficient method of feeding garden crops i.e. corn, rhubarb, cabbage, potatoes, flowers, shrubs, tress etc.. Tests have shown that up to 90 percent of a foliar applied nutrient solution can be found in the smallest root of a plant within 60 minutes of application.

Applying foliar nutrients is an effective method for correcting soil deficiencies and overcoming the soil�s inability to transfer nutrients into the plant. A project funded by the Atomic Energy Commission and conducted at Michigan State University, using radio�active tagged nutrients, proved that foliar feeding is 8 to10 times more effective than soil feeding.

The best time to foliar apply nutrients is late evening to early morning. These are the times when the stomata (the small opening on the leaves) are open.

Avoid foliar applications when the temperature is above 80F and when the weather is hot and dry and water vapor is leaving the cells.

To optimize the benefits of foliar applied nutrients, apply when (1) the temperature is 72F or below, (2) when the cells of the leaf are full of water and dew has collected on the foliage (early in the morning), (3) when air temperatures and humidity both equal 135 or less and (4) when air temperature is cooler than soil surface temperature.
