I'm using the three part Flora-Grow, Micro, Bloom liquid. almost out want to stop paying for water. On the charts at their site, for indoor growth they suggest something extra that seems like I could just use Epson salts instead.

What about it? And thanks in advance.

I use Maxi Gro/Bloom and agree that paying for water is crazy.

The indoor chart probably shows CalMag, not Epsom, which may or may not be needed depending on your water source.

Thank you for the reply. My water source is tap water with a two stage single cartridge 5 micron then .5 micron filter, seems to make it palatable because of course, my water provider is one that has to add the stuff. I have had way worse tap water. I was wondering since the CalMag has magnesium and Epson salts do as well. I could grind up some bones for the calcium? LOL.

The question is: Do you even need additional Mg?
How much is in the water? It sounds like you've seen your water report.
