We are wanting to raise our Magnesium and Potassium....we hear lots of talk about using Epsom Salt to raise mg. Has anyone used Potassium-magnesium sulphate (O-O-22) to raise Mg and K?
It was mentioned for us to use sulphate of potash (O-O-50) but using this would not help raise Mg. Any input on any of these? Thanks Brian and the 4kids

Not cheap but works great.

If your soil needs lime too, use dolomitic lime which will raise your pH,calcium and magnesium levels. Use the 0-0-50 for your potash

I used both Epsom salts and K-Mag to raise my Magnesium over the past 2 years and then 0-0-50 to balance things out.

Potassium-magnesium sulphate (O-O-22) is also called K-Mag and sulpomag (Sul-po-mag). As Steve says, it is a fantastic product and works great on AG's. I use it every year

I used the K-Mag here also. Will use it again in the spring.
