Neem question

Hows it goin today. As I type this I got a compost tea brewing with like a third cup of neem meal and boy does that shit REEK. I plan on using that compost tea mixed with a little bit of yucca extract and a critical amount of Agmino..One of my plants is already flowering pretty full on but I wanted to ask if It's alright to foliar spray her early in the morning with no worries of potential adverse effects?

Also...Agmino is a N product. It wont hinder my plants budding right? The plant uses what it wants and if it doesn't need the N it won't use it is my understanding. Let me know what you think

Peace

Also, false about not using it if it doesn't need it. If it doesn't need it already and you put too much more in, you'll burn your plant. Most common nute burn is nitrogen toxicity.

As for as how much N well I'm top dressing with neem+crab meal some rock dust and some kelp. neem and crab both have around 4N I'm pretty sure and crab as 5P. Agmino is 14N but like I said I'd be using a critical amount

Thanks

If you're not past the middle, you can spray with neem if you're trying to kill bugs off. The lower leaves are either legitimate N def or overwatering. Has it rained heavily? And when did you feed last? I think if you can rule out overwatering from rain, then feed it. I dunno about 14 N in flower, though. You should stick with as low N as possible, and use a good bit of P and K.

It's been raining seldom where I live and even when It does it's never a down pour which in turn gives me a lot more work to do lol. But nah I think its far from overwatering I doubt these girls even get close to the amount of water they need. I haven't used liquid nutes yet on these plants the first dose will be tomorrow of 20ml of a mix thats 1-4-5. Yeah I agree about 14N being a lot but thats why I would put the tiniest bit in with the foliar tea. But yeah this strain is c99 and I've read shes a N whore in early flower thats the onle reason I thought of adding a bit

so you think I should put a little in the foliar tea or put some directly into the soil? Sorry for bombarding you with questions man I'm a bit of a noob

Yawwwwp. Foliar feeds aren't bad, but think of it this way: Your roots are specifically designed to be the mouth of your plant. Your leaves release moisture and oxygen, which is pretty much its excrement and elimination process after using the energy it needs. It's probably more efficient and useful to feed the roots/the soil.

Foliar feeds are great for vegging plants. Specifically with aloe, coconut water, kelp meal, LAB's early mornings before sun or evenings at sun down. I don't foliar in flower unless I am seeing bug issues. Neem meal is great to top dress and water in if you dont have in soil mix already

Not sure how much of this Agmino you mean to use.

adjective crit·i·cal \ˈkri-ti-kəl

  • : expressing criticism or disapproval

  • : of or relating to the judgments of critics about books, movies, art, etc.

  • : using or involving careful judgment about the good and bad parts of something


But if you meant you were going to use a little, I think you will be alright.

Way to be critical.
