the SNG company has a recomendedcombo...warm water w/ a pinch of so of baking soda in it.. to which you add the cocowet..a wetting agent... to get it to stick to and become assimilated easily into theplant.. and the SNG.let it sit for 15 minutes..and then the billsperfect isadded... themix is sprayed on the leaves.. top andbottem...in the evenings or early in the morning. when the poresof the leaves are most open.. they close up in the day to help prevent excessive water transporation... [ water leaving the plant ].. I do this about everyweek... [ perhapsabit more than they recomend..every two weeks ] ...replacing it on the third or fourth week with a spraying of messenger.. it does promote flowering.. and bud development...
The recipe I use inwatering new seedlings... andasasprayafter thtey have some good leaf development.. whenIheard it wasbeingsprayedeveryday...I thought if I was so good to them that I sprayed even plain water on them every day they would be better off...but I never seem to do so..useing the recipe.. it's easier for me to remember to spray it every day.. and I see they love it so.. so useing it gets me spraying every evening or morning.. and the sky is pink now... and I didn't spray last evening.. so it's up to do so right now.. I mix my recipe up with abit of maricle grow...the balanced one at the early part of the year...and mix it up with some bloom booster in the latter part of the season... the recipe seems to have plenty of nitrogen and makes everything so nice and green.. there's other foods and things my potted plants get.. and outside I water with the balanced ferts or bloombooster twice a week depending on the time of year.. or if it is a foilage plant or bloomer..
