    KISS - Spraying the flower organically....Autoflower Fems

    I have been spraying my girls about twice a day. We are out of veg and solidly, healthily in week 5-6 full flower with LST working nicely.
    I have used distilled water in a spray bottle to coat the plant in moisture since birth. I run 400-600w 24/7 so the tendency to dry/absorb quickly is the thing I watch to avoid.

    I am very aware to be cautious of mold.
    Does anyone know of a dilutable organic nute suitable to add to the top of the plant?
    You can find my journal, of sorts javabob to understand how I am feeding and nurturing the plants.
    If you are following, I am using the KISS method however the URGE [read...patience not a grower's greatest atribute] to help the flower development [which probably should be to leave them alone, doing just fine, thank you!]
    is making me wonder if there is something I could/should be doing during this period since Auto's have such a short growth time.

    I will be adding more Gaia Green this weekend after having added molasses to the soil last weekend.
    Expect when close to harvest [5-6 weeks away] to add "Beastie Blooms" for that special push to the finish line.

    I will add photos in my next journal entry.

    Thanks, looking forward to any thoughts on the matter. The tent has been running at 40-50 humidity/ 75 to 85 degrees. Running 24/7 is a major factor in why mold is not,(as of yet anyway), due to the heat and dryness of the area. I water only about 4 cups per plant every 36 or so hours. They are loving the schedule.

    Thanks for reading....

    Answering my own question....after more due diligence.

    They call it FOLIAR FEEDING.
    1] if it ain't broke...don't burn the leaves.
    2] best time to spray is 1-2 hours before or after the lights get turned on or off.
    Running 24/7 there's not much room for spraying

    3] Do not spray above 26C/78F, well good luck in keeping my room from climbing above 78 on a summer day, especially during [for me] a coming 12-day heat wave.
    I'll be battling trying to keep the tent at a MAX of 85!
    4] opening up a whole can of risk to the plant with the strength of the spray.
    Why look for trouble since this is ,to date...knock wood a very healthy grow.

    So my thought was wrong for me.
    Just sayin', and as I stated earlier...if it ain't broke...breathe and have a new dose of patience. And keeping it KISS!

      I spray nothing on buds for fear of inducing bud rot. "FOLIAR FEEDING" is fine in veg.
