My plants have a severe magnesium defficiency so i mixed epsom salt w/water at a ratio of 2tablespoons/1gallon. i mixed about 5 gallons for my 7 plants and 1 baby. i used it all on them, and made a foliar spray for them too.
Did I use too much salt????? I'm afraid from what i'm reading i may cause a nute lockout?? i also did not crush the crystals or use hot water, just warm.
PLEASE HELP, I JUST DID THIS AN HOUR AGO, SHOULD I FLUSH THEM? PLZ HELP FAST.

also, i believe the ph was about 7~. i used a small amount of baking soda to neutralize it a bit.

Just reading further for ya. The Marijuana Grower's Bible is my favorite read. Its falling apart. LOL

i did this once with a nutrient i was adding. called for 6 teaspoons in my res, so i threw in 6 tablespoons. i also realized it right as i dumped it in... it was in hydro though ina recirculatory reservoir, so i just dumped and started over, but lesson was learned nonetheless.

epsom salts is one thing i hate using, unless you know exactly why your adding it then it will cause more problems than your original symptoms, flush mate and hope they are ok.
