Hello so i have a sachet of something similar to epsom salts, i just want to know if it is ok to useon my plants without making things worse.. the contents are:
magnesium hydroxide 3.6 g
sucrose 0.4 g

its a 4 gram sachet of powder.. and i would also like to know how much to add per litre of water. thanks

also, ive realized that magnesium hydroxide isnt the same as magnesium sulfate. whats the difference? could this harm my plants?

Check it out:

It's an antacid. According to what I've read it probably won't hurt your plants but it does not readily dissolve in water (by design). When adding a micro-nutrient you want it to disolve in or with water.

Quit adding weird things to your soil.

Only gonna make things worse.

Get into a good fert like fox farms and follow there feeding chart.http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/soilfeed.pdf

Keep it simple, and expect high yields!!

Good luck!

They look overfertilized if anything.

Please take my advice, and your goal will be reached. :hump:
