They also help to increase photosynthesis and water retention, resist disease, protect against pests and promote growth. They can be used for treating any plant, fruits, vegetables or flowers.
Foliar fertilizers don't pose any risk to soil pollution. The fertilizer required depends on the type and size of the plant as well as how much foliage it has. Foliar fertilizers work best when the plants are actively growing. This allows them to absorb the nutrients faster. These are the steps to follow when fertilizing your garden.
