The Secret to a Thriving Summer Garden: Mid-Season Foliar Applications of Organic REV
Summer is in full swing, and your garden is likely bursting with life. But as the temperatures rise, so do the challenges your plants face. Heat stress, nutrient deficiencies, and pest pressure can all take a toll on your garden. Thankfully, a mid-season foliar application of Organic REV can be your garden's best ally. Here’s why you should consider this powerful gardening technique and how to do it effectively.
Why Foliar Applications?
Foliar feeding is the process of applying liquid fertilizers directly to the leaves of plants. This method allows plants to absorb nutrients quickly through their foliage, bypassing the soil. When you use Organic REV in a foliar application, you're giving your plants an immediate boost of nutrients and beneficial microbes right where they need them most.
The Benefits of a Mid-Season Foliar Application
-
Immediate Nutrient Uptake: Organic REV is packed with essential nutrients that your plants can absorb directly through their leaves. This immediate nutrient uptake helps plants cope with mid-season stressors more effectively.
-
Enhanced Photosynthesis: The nutrients in Organic REV support chlorophyll production, enhancing your plants' ability to photosynthesize. This leads to healthier, more vigorous growth.
-
Increased Stress Tolerance: Summer heat can be brutal on plants. Organic REV helps increase their tolerance to heat stress by improving overall plant health and boosting root strength.
-
Pest and Disease Resistance: Healthy plants are better equipped to fend off pests and diseases. The beneficial microbes in Organic REV help strengthen your plants' natural defenses.
-
Improved Flowering and Fruiting: A mid-season boost of nutrients can lead to more abundant and higher-quality flowers and fruits, ensuring a bountiful harvest.
Tips for Effective Foliar Application
-
Choose the Right Time: Apply Organic REV early in the morning or late in the evening when temperatures are cooler and the sun is less intense. This helps prevent leaf burn and allows for better absorption.
-
Dilute Properly: Follow the recommended dilution rates for Organic REV. Typically, a mixture of 2-3 ounces per gallon of water works well for most garden plants.
-
Cover All Foliage: Ensure you thoroughly spray all the leaves, both top and underside, to maximize nutrient absorption.
-
Repeat as Needed: While a single application can make a significant difference, you can repeat the foliar feeding every 2-4 weeks for ongoing benefits.
-
Monitor Your Plants: Keep an eye on your plants after application. Look for signs of improved health, such as greener leaves, stronger growth, and better resistance to pests and diseases.

A mid-season foliar application of Organic REV is a simple yet powerful way to support your summer garden. With its immediate nutrient delivery and stress-buffering benefits, Organic REV helps your plants thrive even in the face of summer's challenges. Give it a try, and watch your garden flourish!
