oldtimer1 Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 In that case it is very unlikely you have Zn deficiency, I have never seen it. In cases where it does occur it is better feed with a balanced fertiliser that has Zn in it, as applying it on its own tends to lock out other micros, it is very toxic and even a slight overdose can kill plants very quickly.. A small pinch of mixed chelates in a can of water will solve the problem without messing the compost balance. Or a level teaspoon of zinc sulphate dissolved in a gallon as a foliar spray. I just don’t think this is your problem or the answer. I suspect you may have another problem. Do you have any pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal Posted June 29, 2003 Author Share Posted June 29, 2003 You are probably right but im getting self same symptoms i know it could be mg but ive been giving the plants epsomsalts for the last 3 waters/feed and things dont seem to be getting any better. Ive been a bit lapse with water ph so im now keeping my water round about 6 to see if this makes a difference its not a big problem but it seems to be on the new growth Cheers for your input Ot1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer1 Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 Hmm one or two waters with epsom salts 3 to 5 weeks apart into compost is enough for a whole grow, otherwise it will lock up other nutrients in the compost. It is better to apply additional Mg as a foliar spray if more is needed. It is always better to feed the plants a balanced fertiliser. I suspect that often people mistake insufficient nitrogen for Mg probs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
