Does anyone know the correct quantities of epsom salts for foliar feeding? I read in the 'before you post' section it's 1/2 teaspoon per quart, is this in it's powdered form, or does it need to be dissolved first?

Thanks.

HI m8

Yes, just floolw the Epsom instructions as pinned by Bish. Just dissolve the epsom in a little lukewarm water, then diltute it to 1Litre or however much u want in ur sprayer.

Make sure u do ur spraying at lights out.

best of luck

Thanks for your reply Sensi-Samurai smile.gif

So I use 1/2 teaspoon epsom salts per 2 litres of water, dissolved first in warm water?

Then foliar spray just after lights out? Is it okay to leave the leaves wet overnight? It's midway through it's fourth week of flowering and the last thing I want to do is encourage mould to take hold. My lights off RH is around 50%. The MG def is starting to get a bit severe, partially because I misdiagnosed it as N or P def and upped it's doseage of these slightly last feed and of course it made no difference.

The main reason I want to foliar feed it now is because it's going to be 3 days till it's next water feed and I'm getting twitchy about the number of leaves that have yellow blotches on them.

Thanks for your help smile.gif

Babygro - don't mist! Water in when you next feed.
