Foliar Feeding Made Easy! + How and Why to Do It

Foliar feeding is a great way to get fast results, help stunted plants, aid in disease healing, stress reduction, and more. In this episode we will be showing you how and why you should be foliar feeding thanks to this amazing tool the EZ Flow hose bib fertilizer injector!

Wow! How wonderful! I just came to my computer to check what the leave curl was, read an article and then hunted for you to learn what I can do. I couldn't believe when your email showed up with my answer!

foiler feeding is a lifesaver for me because the potting mix I use (espoma) retains a ton of water then you add in the mulch and I can go sometimes a week and a half to 2 weeks without needing to watering my peppers in the heat of the summer. so to avoid overwatering but still keep up with my fertilizer schedule, foiler feeding comes in real handy.

BEST PURCHASE I have ever made for my garden, EVER!!! EZ FLO! Hands down, the BEST!! I use it for my annuals and it saves me a few HOURS every week! Love it! A PLUS...I had a question when I first purchased and I called the phone number and a real live person answered...I love when that happens😀 They were polite and helpful. All that to say, BUY an Ez FLO if you do any kind of regular fertilizing! 😉

I love your videos, mate! With all the craziness going on in the world, it is great to switch off and see someone so passionate about what they do and do so well! Take care of yourself and keep the content coming!

Great looking product. Could you do a follow up with different kind of foliar feeds you can use and how to make them? You touched on them, but didn't go into detail

I just got one in the mail earlier this week from HOSS tool. I haven't used it yet but hope to on Monday, my day to fertilize. Thanks for the review.

[Aerialphotovito]

I actually have 2 of them simply a great product use it mostly to fertilize my lawn and evergreen trees 😃😃

I ordered mine last week to be able to run liquid fertilizer through our drip system.:) I was excited to see you loved this product! Please be sure to add a anti-siphon/backflow preventer (unless the unit has one built in, but I didn't get that impression when I was looking at info when purchasing it). It is important for safety.

Love your videos, been watching for a couple of years now. THX 🙏🏼

Macronutrients (N, P, K, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur) should be applied to the soil, as the plant requirements are higher than what could be supplied through the foliage. Plants have a difficult time absorbing these nutrients through their leaf tissues. On the other hand, micronutrients (including zinc, boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, etc) are usually required in small amounts and can be applied through the foliage. You can normally provide what the plant needs with two or three annual applications. However, for the leaves to absorb these micronutrients, the proper formulation for foliar application must be used – formations such as iron or zinc chelate. I researched this through the Cooperative extension literature. It seems your promotion of the solution needs quite a bit of clarification in order for it to be effective. Otherwise people will be throwing the money away or potentially damaging their plants

Fantastic information for fruit growth ! Thanks for this information ♡ I've never done this fertilizer before- looking forward to trying.

[TheVigilantStewards]

Thanks for finding this channel and sponsoring it EZ Flow.

Question though... how do you know what the ratio is and if it's achieving a good ratio?

And if you're using a hose instead of a pump sprayer, most people don't have hose hooked up to rainwater tank. What can we do to get our hose water good and healthy for the plants? We have a community well but they put chlorine in it. If I let it sit out for a few days, then I can't hook it up to through the hose.

Really enjoyed this, Luke. Would love to see a followup video on "return on investment." At what point do you decide an additional effort, such as foliar feeding, is justified? How do you decide foliar feeding is a better return than conventional fertilizing? And so on...

Was watching your Apple 🍎 trees episode. in containers, many people asked to show how the trees are doing . It was in 2017 . Comments were 2 weeks ago . Daughter was like 1 so fun to see her grow too.

For the first half of the video I sat here thinking is he going to walk around holding that jug??? Then I saw it goes at the house valve. Lol I was looking at it way wrong also its midnight

I let the algae take hold in my indoor hydroponics. It's an ebb and flow bed of LECA for a young apple bonsai grown from seed. I believe the algae is attempting to choke out the apple plant because I keep trimming it back to shape and style the plant. I'm going to try to foliar feed and stop the flow of water to the bed. The bed of LECA will hold water for months. I cleaned the reservoir and will assess my next steps after seeing the plant's response.

I hope this will help the algae to live in synergy.

Also, an observation about development in general. The development is permitted to the extent that the rest of the environment allows for development. I believe this heuristic is a statement that fits to all organisms or even groups of organisms.

I welcome a good commercial as long as my money is invested not wasted.

Saved the fertilizer on Amazon...2 gallon is about $120. I will have to wait to get it, but good to have it saved!

[Zinniasgo]

Nice! Thnx for the 411 on this product & as usual a learning video on why the leaves are curling & dropping 😎👍🍃☀️

[jakebudde]

I have one of those easy flos great infuser works great, I. Built a feeding needle for deep root feeding and you can even use it to fert the lawn. Reccomend it 100 percent
