Re: Nitrogen and Brix Level
Again, you can actually watch the rise of the brix number, in successive
harvestings, after you have utilized valuable fertilizers, especially
foliar sprays.
Foliar sprays are never a substitute for good, REAL soil, but they are an
excellent extra help, especially when the crop is just starting, with 2-4
leaves, and in the early formative stages of flower and fruit, altho they
are a help any time, and often will pick up and rescue a crop that is
about to go downhill.
The fact that a foliar will "save your skin", so to say, is a warning that
you really must get busy and improve your soil before the next planting.
Brix is the warning, but easy to raise.
