About Foliar Sprays & Leaf Feeds
A foliar spray feeds your plants through their leaves, as an extra to the feed they take up through their roots. Our foliar sprays from Shogun, Plagron, Plant Magic, Optic Foliar and Moonshine are used alongside your normal feed to support growth, leaf colour and vigour on tomatoes, chillies, peppers, herbs, salad and houseplants.
Some come ready to spray and others mix with water, so the table below shows which is which. All are in stock for UK delivery or Click & Collect from our West Bromwich store, and we price match.

Foliar spray FAQs
When is the best time to use a foliar spray?
Shogun advises avoiding intense light or high temperatures, and Plagron suggests spraying with lights off or just before lights on, to avoid leaf burn. Cover the tops and undersides of the leaves.
Does a foliar spray replace my normal feed?
No. Shogun Geisha Foliar and Plagron Vita Race are both designed to be used alongside your regular nutrient programme.
Which foliar sprays are ready to use?
Shogun Geisha Foliar, Moonshine Sunshine and the 500ml Plant Magic Evolution 2.0 come ready to spray. Plagron Vita Race is mixed at 5 ml per litre of water.
Can I use foliar sprays in soil, coco or hydro?
Yes. Because they are sprayed on the leaves, Shogun and Plagron say Geisha Foliar and Vita Race suit soil, coco and hydroponic systems.
Do you sell protective leaf sprays too?
Yes. Sprays that protect leaves from pests and mildew, such as Canna Cure and Athena IPW Plant Wash, are in our spider mite treatment range.
