Help!!! All I could find to finish the season is granular Muriate of Potash. Should I try to mix it into water and foliar feed or just spread it out around the vines? Thanks for Any Help!!

I spread it around the vines and water the area with fish/seaweed. This takes care of the leaves and lets water trickle down the leaves and breaks some of the potash with every watering it further wears out the potash which will seep into the soil and is absorbed by the plant. Thats what i do. Some more expirienced growers may say something else.

I forgot to mention. Be sure to get off all potash off the leaves. It'll burn the leaves.

Weigh your 0-0-60 MOP & spread it very accuratly. Two pounds is more than enough for 1000 sq ft. Like Kenny said, don't let any sit on the leaves.
