The official "Epsom salts is not a miracle cure" thread
Cool, thanks. Handy info. :thumbsup:
I wonder if the addition of epsom salts is to aid with carb uptake, or if it's just a ph adjuster...or something totally benign? Would love to find out that watering with a dash MgSO4 and a little glop of molasses, does the same thing as Sweet itself. Doubtful it could be that easy, tho.
edit: I hope this doesn't go against the grain, what with this being a post disuading arbritary use of MgSO4. (truly not my intent)Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . The official "Epsom salts is not a miracle cure" thread Well, it's NOT! Lots of people are trying to use Epsom salts to fix their undiagnosed plant problems, thinking they will make the leaves turn green and healthy again. This is not logical. Why? -Problems caused by overfert (burns, lockout, increased sensitivity to heat, soil salting) will be exacerbated by YET ANOTHER ionic substance entering the mix. -Problems caused by overwatering can't be fixed by changing what is in the water. -Problems caused by pH imbalance are not solved by the Rating: 5
