Epsom Salts

It seems like early in the season my plants have a sulfur deficiency so I have needed to add some Epsom salts. Typically, watering plants with a rate of 1 TBS per gallon can help correct slight deficiencies and help prevent a deficiency from occurring.

If an issue is noticed stepping up the application rate to 2 TBS / gallon and doing a soil drench and foliar application can help the plants green up. However, just be careful for any applications or drift on newly developing leaves as this can potentially cause some mild leaf curl.
