epsom salt?

[Frame]

Ok I came to the conclusion that my plant needs Epson salt to help her Intake some nutes...how much should I give her? She is in a 5 gl pot I give her about 800 ml of water every other day, nutes every other watering.

Ive been using distilled water and I heard that it lacks in cal and mag...

 

[djlifeline]

Do you get water run out of bottom with 800ml watering?

Ya,sometimes a lot sometimes a little.

i would mix up a gallon of water and add a teaspoon of of epson salt and shake good and let sit for a half hour then water...or you can spray that solution directly on the plant

Two more questions pls. Will the gallon of water stay with the Epson salt in it or will it dilute. Cause I can add the salt to the gallon, but the gallon of water is gonna sit there will It loose the amount added like dissolve with time or will it be good till I finish the gl of water. My other question would be....should I continue nutes with the espson salt water?

Take it easy with the Mg. I use RO and add Ca & Mg in equal parts as too much Mg locks out Ca plus others. If u wanna use Mg in the form of Epsom Salts then add 2 teaspoons for 1 gallon or use as a foliar spray.

Would it be ok to spray the buds with it also?

 

[Corso312]

yeah...i spray buds with no issues.... trust me ...i have used a teaspoon per gallon and let it sit and dissolve some for a half hour and water or spray and have never had any issues..the plants respond in 24-48 hours after you give use it....

Should I spray the plant with the Epson salt water and do regular distilled watering with nutes? Or should I also add the Epson salt to the water used for the soil and nutes?

 

[Corso312]

it does not matter

Thanx, ill try this next watering...

 

[batman4x4]

is epson bath salt the same thing as what you call epson salt

 

[DannyBlaze]

I don't like to spray anything on my buds
1/2 tsp per gallon of epsom salt one or
two times is plenty. Do you water good till you
get some out the bottom and letting it dry out
good cause every other day is a lot of watering
I use the 5 gallon pots and water every 3 days
and some times 4 days
