Foliar Sprays are a part of plant growing practices. Worm worked soils have
burrows formed by the earthworms. Bacteria richly inhabit these burrows,
also called as the drilospheres. Water passing through these passages
washes the nutrients from these burrows to the roots to be absorbed by the
plants. This principle is applied in the preparation of vermiwash. Vermiwash
is a very good foliar spray.
