Excerpt from Foliar Feeding of Essential Nutrients to Plants
Studies on tomatoes and cantaloups showed that foliar sprays of magne sium sulfate at 4 pounds per acre and borax at 2 pounds per acre were beneficial. The authors (23) recommended two foliar sprays for cantaloups, the first one when the vines begin to run and the second when the crown fruit is 1 to 2 inches in diameter. For tomatoes, the first spray should be applied when the crown fruit begins to turn and the second at the third week of harvest. They reported an economic return of per acre based on foliar feeding.
