There are plenty of University studies proving the benefits of Foliar spraying. In regards to banana, there are specific recommendations for using foliar spray to treat nutrient defectiveness. Just use google to find them.



So why don't YOU perform an experiment proving it doesn't work!
Because I never had bent leaf rolls on musa. I never said that foliar feeding of elements other than calcium doesn't work.
