Can anyone tell me about how much of the sea weed and the fish emulsion to use per plant per week. Also do you use them as a drench or folage spray. Thanks for your help

Neptunes Harvest says 1/8 cup ( 1 fl. oz. ) per gallon for Foliar spray. For a drench, they say 1 Tablespoon.
But this year, I proably doubled that. never had a problem

The couple guys I know go to folage spray once a week or after good rain or provided misting. I plan to follow one day later with mill dew prevent sprays. My personal belief in both cases is that the first four hours or to the absolutely dry point is the most effective time on plant. If one can be good enough to apply preventative sprays just to the damp point it will reactivate any under spray while adding the present value of any given spray. I have always had a sprayer unit for each application, well marked and not used for any other purpose. Any excess seaweed or fish fertlizer is shared with other backyard plants. They will thank you too.
