I've seen something posted somewhere that said using foliage ferts can show noticeable improvements fairly quickly. I plan on getting some fish emulsion today and broadcast spraying it over all my plants this evening. How does this sort of thing effect my liquid sevin application I just did two days ago? Anyone have any input on foliage ferts? I'm also using MG Bloom Buster on plants w/o fruit yet and 20-20-20 on those that have fruit set.

If your useing sevin wet the leaves just to the point before they start dripping(or re apply after)Try some neptunes harvest seeweed blend.Its most likely the best foiler application yet!(fish is also good).apply weekly or more.Good luck!!

whatever your watering system is--if one thing cancels out the other,(sevin getting washed off by the foliar feeding)
::: maybe if you have yer main supply drenching the vines and bare ground/roots, but not the leaves, you won't be undoing yer liquid sevin applications--i don't know...haven't used it...i use Admire systemic for the cuke beetles, have only seen three, and luckily one less thing
i have to worry about...i think! good luck and hope i helped...pumpkinpal
