Well, i am a gardener and alredy tried for 3 months and my
plants grows like during the summer in this cold winter.


That's total nonsense. The reasons plants grow well during
the Summer, is because it's then that there's more available
light to fuel photosynthesis. And the accompanying warmth
to speed up chemical and biological processes generally.
Its impossible to compenaste for deficiencies in light
and temperature by simply loading plants with additional
nutrients.

And excepting in special cases such as bromeliads,
and carnivourous plants, no satisfactory mechanism* has
ever been put forward to explain how plants can absorb
large amounts of water or nutrients through their leaves.

As such a feature would be of no practical benefit
to the vast majority of plants, and thus has no survival
value, there's no reason why such a mechanism should
have been passed on through thousands of successive
generations of plants. When instead, as a totally unecessary
feature, it would have been selected out tens of thousands
of years ago.

* Which means none of the following. What's required
is a Peer Reviewed Paper by a reputable botanist
which satisfactority explains the mechanisms involved.
Not one-off experiments, or explanations from crackpot
if tenured botanists.
