I agree with Billy, it is better to underdose than overdose, but I've always done the Epsom Salt thing another way. Herb Gustafson once told me to just sprinkle it on like I was seasoning meat on my BBQ. So, a couple times a season I do. When I water, the salts dissolve, and that's that. Simple. I've got enough mixing to do with just my regular fertilization, I don't need any more and Herb's method works.

SNIPPING APPLIED


Epsom Salt
Should I prepare TWO liters with one gram of the general one plus one gram of the micronutrients? Also and following your advice, should I apply just half gram per liter of water?
Have a nice day,
Roberto
