- Phil Easy shows you simple easy quick how to foliar spray vegetables plants, cucumbers plants, tomatoes plants, pepper plants using humic acid. Discussion on benefits of humic acid on your tomatoe cucumber and pepper plants. Discussion on benefits of foliar spraying your tomatoe cucumber and pepper plants.
Only fulvic acids can be uptaken by plants through foliar feeding. Humic acids are eficient in soil. But what do I know
Thank you, you did a good instruction, simple and easy just what I was looking for. It would be nice to see how your garden grows.
Thank you for the kind words. Subscribe and see all of my videos. I have put two garden updates, 2 greenhouse updates and will be putting the third series up this week. I plan to show the whole process right up to canning and storing the food. Thanks again
I like your tomatoe to cannabis plant ratio. Using the fulvic form of humic acids for foliar applications is the best way. Cannabis will respond amazing with 5parts fulvic acid 2 parts kelp
Hey Caleb, thanks for the tips, appreciate the info, thanks for commenting
Hey dude 3 years later what do u mean 5 parts acid? ,and is that kelp meal?im interested 🧐
@@ponydong 5 parts liquid fulvic acid,2 parts liquid kelp.
@@ponydong
5 part fulvic acid+ 2 part kelp(sea weed extractor)
Google it
Is that the same as the humic acid granules sold in small bags?
Hi yes it is the same
Pro Tip: it only absorbs when it's wet.😎✌
Nice! Thanks for the tip. Make sense why foliar spraying works...would be much harder to spray on dry lol
Would you suggest using a solution containing humic acid as a seed soak solution to speedup the Germination of seeds prior to planting
Hi, Humic acid is believed to have various benefits for plant growth, including promoting germination. However, while there are some anecdotal reports of success with using humic acid as a seed soak solution, there is limited scientific evidence to support its effectiveness in speeding up germination.
That being said, some studies have suggested that humic acid can improve seedling growth and yield when used as a soil amendment. So, while it may not necessarily speed up germination, it could potentially have other benefits for plant growth.
Thanks for watching my video and your question
@@EasyGardenHacks wow thanks so much for that additional info. Happy Gardening
If it binds to the roots why spray the leaves?
It is absorbed into the plant much faster through the leaves than the roots.
Humid is better applied in the root zone. Foliar fulvic!
Hi Ron thanks for the tip appreciate it
Does it help prevent pests ?
Hi Jennifer, I am unsure if the humic acid prevents pests. I have not had issues with pests but cant say for certain it had anything to do with the humic acid. I know the plants are healthier because I spray them and this will help with some pest and disease resistance, just by having strong and healthy plants.
@@EasyGardenHacks , Thanks for the reply. That is exactly what I was thinking. If I make them healthy as possible, then they won’t be as attractive to pests 😊
Can we mix fumic acid and fish amino acid for foliar spray??
Hi sorry for taking long to respond to your question. I have not tried fish amino acid myself, but I understand it is really good for the plants and can be applied both to the soil and as a foliar spray. I have combined fumic acid with a sea weed liquid with success. I dont know for sure but I feel as though you can do this without harming your plants. Best of luck. Thanks for watching my video.
@@EasyGardenHacks Well, i tried and believe leaf are much healthier now when fumic and amino acid are mixed together and foliar sprayed... Thank u for respondinf anyway, way to go, all the best!!
@@drjilshoyjayaraj4452 thanks for the info about how it worked for you. I am going to try it out myself. All the best to you, Thanks again
Damn, you should use fulvic acid for foliar sprays. Humic acid is unavailable to the plant itself. Remember kids, humic acid for a soil drench, fulvic acid for a foliar.
Is this anything comparable to bioAG ful power?
Hi Tyler, I took a look the bioAG is made with fulvic acid vs humic. My understanding is that fulvic is better than humic for the foliar aplication, this is due to its lower molecular weight meaning it can cross cell membranes easier . While humic acid naturally improves soil health and growth, fulvic acid will help your plants take up nutrients more effectively. Both are good for your plants, they just help out in slightly different ways. Thanks for the question.
@@EasyGardenHacks thanks for the reply! I have the fulpower humic acid, should I pray it on my plants leaves or the dirt in the pot?
@@tyler238 I have done both soil and folliar application but the more I reasearch this the more I see humic being recommended for soil and fulvic for folliar spraying on the leaves.
@@EasyGardenHacks thank you
Czn i use for peppers in.my hydroponic garden...pls advise
Hi yes I just finished spraying my peppers with humic acid and epsome salts. Just dont spray if expecting direct hot sun on the leaves as I have read they may get sunburned.
Thks for the quick response. 1 more question please. I've got biohumic 20... Is it good on hydroponic gardening. And pls advise dosage wth epsom sakt too. Can i use bith together. I use them as root spraying not foliage spray.. Is it once per week or per month...hope not bothering you too much....☺
@@jewootahsoonaina7665 Hi. I have not used biohumic 20 but I looked it up and it appears to be a humic and fulvic acid combo I am unsure on the rest of what is in it. It should be fine to use but I would test a single plant first just in case.
Epsom salt mix I use is about 2 tablespoons (30ml) per gallon (4 litres) of water.
I have used both epsom salts and humic acid together with no negative effect. I spay about 1x per month vs 1x per week but I think you could go 2x per month with no issues.
Dont worry about asking questions you are not bothering me. Best of luck.
Thank you very much. I will just follow as you advised me. After 1 or 2 weeks i will revert back to you. Till then bye....take care
@@jewootahsoonaina7665 Your welcome. Take care, talk to you soon
pretty sure you should be spraying that on the underside of your leaves bud!
Hi Grandad, very true spraying the bottom is important, more of what you are spraying is absorbed on the underside. Spraying the top also helps just doesnt absorb as much. Thanks for the comment.
Plant leaf top is for photosynthesis, leaf bottom is for nutrients absorption.
Very true thanks for watching
lol that's a nice "tomato" plant on the left
Thanks, she seems to love that spot. Thanks for watching
Update sir?.
My plants are seedlings and not in the hoophouse yet. So unforturnantly no update. I have used this technique for several years with success.
@@EasyGardenHacks let me update sir because i want to buy this product.
Fouler sprays seem like a myth almost cause the nutrients are going to fall into the ground and roots a hundreds of times better at absorbing nutrients than leaves. Does anyone have any tests they’ve ran?
Hi Don really good question, I have not researched if there are any tests but I did come up with a bit more info that might help.
Foliar spray and root absorption are two different methods of applying nutrients or treatments to plants.
Application: This method involves spraying a liquid solution directly onto the leaves of a plant.
Absorption: Nutrients are absorbed through the stomata (tiny pores) on the leaf surface, as well as through the epidermis (outer layer of cells) of the leaves.
Advantages:
-Quick absorption: Nutrients can be rapidly taken up by the plant.
-Bypasses soil-related issues: Useful when the soil is compacted, waterlogged, or nutrient-deficient.
-Effective for micronutrient application.
Considerations:
-Timing is crucial: It's often more effective when applied in the early morning or late afternoon when the stomata are open.
-Can potentially cause leaf burn or damage if applied in strong sunlight or at high concentrations.
Application: Nutrients or treatments are applied directly to the soil or growing medium, where they are taken up by the plant's roots.
Absorption: Roots absorb water and nutrients through osmosis and active transport.
Advantages:
-Sustained supply: Provides a continuous source of nutrients as the roots take them up over time.
-Less risk of leaf damage: Since it doesn't involve direct contact with leaves, it's less likely to cause burn or damage.
-Suitable for nutrient-rich, well-draining soils.
Considerations:
-Slower uptake: Absorption through the roots can be slower compared to foliar absorption.
-Soil condition matters: If the soil is compacted, waterlogged, or nutrient-deficient, root absorption may be less effective.
Thanks for watching and your question/comment
Use gardena spray
Thanks for the tip and watching the video
Its totally wrong, humic acid should be applied only through soil, not leaf
