All over the plant, top of the leaves. You need to rinse off of it as well.
From my experience, I dont like to do foliar sprays of any kind unless absolutely necessary. Especially something like this product. This type of product, if it even works, is only going to be beneficial to someone who already knows how to grow there plant to its maximum potential, and then start adding shit like that. Only once can you get your plants to express there best, can you up the ante.
But I dont like their products to begin with.

why do u not like there products? also u said all over the plants/top of the leafs.. now when u say that does that mean all over the top of the plants?
well I was going to do a side by side test with the stuff to see if it even works.. I was going to do half with it and half with out. because I don't have a lot. I only have a couple small free samples to use.

Yeah I agree their products are junk. Purple Maxx kind of works but when I tested snow storm didn't do a thing. Their telling people to foliar with it now? Use to be a additive to your nutrients. Who knows though it may work on the strains you are using.

Good idea try it only on half so it might only kill half of it

it says on the bottle it can be used for foliar feeding or added with nutrients when feeding.. but i don't want to add to the nutrients because i mix up 16 gallons of water with nutrients and feed all the plants at once.. and i only want to try it on a couple plants just to see if there is a difference, so that why i want to foliar feed..

Give it a go and let us know it didn't hurt anything when I used it. Pretty much like spraying with water.
I went to a hydro convention in San Fran and they had Purple Maxx on demo. They had all these purple tomatoes and carrots and crap. I wonder why that stuff never came out must have been fairly toxic I guess. That or they were full of shit at the convention and just colored the veggies some how.
