I haven't tried any foliar tonics though I have heard good things about using minute doses of acetylsalicylic acid and seaweed extract.

The acetylsalicylic acid mimics salicin and acts as a signal for the plant to boost it's immune response (SAR). I've also heard that seaweed extract can assist with cold tolerance.

Cheers,
Jim
