  2. it looks like you have a n-mag def try some Epsom salt that should help
     
  3. Ok no problem. I boosted my Canna A & B added more Root Excelurator (N and Potash) and I'm reading up on the Epsom salt thing. Wondering what's the best way to use it? I see on a few gardening sites they say 2T per gallon once a month in the ration water.

    Does that sound right?
     
  4. you should start with 1 table spoon per gallon
     
  5. thank you sir. I'm on it.
