Pretty straight forward, do you foliar feed or not? If so what do you add for nutes?

I foliar feed with half strength veg nutes, every couple of days tell the 2nd week of flower.

I use House & Garden nutrients & I Magic green every other week as directed, it's fab. They love it! Matter of fact they got it @ 4:00am this morning!

I have been using a tea mixture of Organic Kelp Seaweed and Organic Thrive Alive B-1 http://www.technaflora.com/products.php?product=16 in a 1 litter spray bottle. On my youngins/mothers with CFL's I spray several times a day using my moisture meter keeping it at about 70%. I do this for 1 solid week every 3 weeks. Over spray must be avoided, with the fan going and keeping the temperature at around 70-75 degrees °F you should be able to prevent over/under leaf wetness. They are very happy and dark green. I also mist with filtered water during the off foliar weeks.

I just sprayed my girls down with some of the House & Garden Magic Green the other day for the first time. I only have 2 plants, and I went really lite on the mix. still vegging and I would hate to burn the plants. How wet do you get the plant. And do you still use it during flower, I heard you could?

Someone in a shop gave me a sample... do you think it smells like farmyard? A lot like horse turds

Foliar feeding is one of my staples for growing in veg (and through week 2 after 12/12). It will breathe life into your plants and set them up for vigorous, healthy growth. I mainly foliar compost teas, for IPM (neem/Castile soap), or to rapidly address micronutrient issues.

That said, you still MUST control humidity and provide plenty of airflow. Without strong air turnover, I would say do NOT foliar.

I've foliar fed Extreme Serene to vegging plants before. Harvest was larger, but that also may have been due to more experience from my first couple of grows.
