Hi I found out my plants had Mag Def, and the cure is to add a epson salt.

I am wondering how often do I have to add epson salt to my water? Is it at every feeding?

id like to know folks thoughts on epsom salt aswell . . recently done the same , first couple feedings i just kinda measured by eye ( and ear , get a recognisable fizz ) though she has perked up a good bit . . .
while on the subject , i heard epsom was also an alternative to asprin and some rooting powders . .

Ive never used the stuff but i have seen others here fuk their grows straight up using it,in one case i watched a grower kill their plants so badly they looked like the grower took a flame thrower to them.

Why use epsome salts in the first place,seems to me the safer alternative would be to buy an all purpose nutrient that contains all the micro nutes,then mix a very weak mixture & foliar feed the plant avery other day until the def is corrected.

I mix 2tsp. ES per gallon H2O , every watering, along with Fox Farm Grow Big for the Vegging plant and Fox Farm Open Sesame for the flowering. I have not had any problems, but then our water is from a well , different water will make a difference. I bet you could put 1/2 tsp. per Gal.H2O with no problems. Do it for a while and see.
