Epsom salts for Magnesium Deficiency question

[Mr.me]

Howdy all! Have a quick question, right now im having some magnesium deficiency and need to add some Epsom salts (mag) to my plant, would it be better to put it in a gallon of water and just water the plant with that, or to add it to water and folair spray the leaves? Cant really find a exact answer :/ The only reason why im using this is because i cant get cal mag atm.

Thanks all!

Add to water and water your plant. Teaspoon per gallon of water.

Its my first grow (disclaimer) , but so far so good. Im using distilled water which is like RO water. I add a tiny bit (maybe 1/8 teaspoon) per gallon of Epsom salt every time i water. Never had any mag deficiencies

Hit it with a foliar spray, it will go to work quicker. Then add it to your actual water schedule twice a month after.

Don't foliar spray if in flower

You don't spray anything on buds. You will be smoking it at some point. #Random

Hello, not sure if you know, but if you were to foliar feed with the epsom salt, how much should you use? tsp?

Thank you very much

spray just before lights off when foliar feeding Epsom salts.
dissolve Epsom salt in a little warm/hot water first before adding to the water youll be putting in your spray bottle.

Is there a specific reason why you wouldn't do this? I though you would do it at night, because the water can act as a magnifying glass and burn your plant? I have no idea LOL please correct me if im wrong. (im still very new at this, any help is EXTREMELY appreciated)

Thank you!
