    Can't find liquid magnesium

    Hey GWE. Happy Thanksgiving by the way. I'm continuing to struggle with plants that have their kind soil exhausted, and I'm working on adding what I need to back into the soil. I've started using Mega crop, and also as was suggested Epsom salts for magnesium. So now I have the cannabis grow bible here, loan to me by a friend, and this bro Bible says that granular magnesium is not what should be used because it's difficult for the plants roots to uptake it. It says use Liquid magnesium made for plants. So of course I look up one of the brands that they suggest and it's only sold in the UK. That said, when I go online to Amazon, I cannot find any products that is just liquid magnesium. Cal Mag is there, but do I want calcium and magnesium? I know a lot of you out there use Cal Mag to Green up your plants I've supposed, but is Cal Mag what I want? And I'm also looking for something that is organic. I think the bio Tana care is not organic. Please correct me if I'm wrong! So I'd like someone to chime in here, and I know it's Thanksgiving so I may have to wait a while...

        Thanks Brother, I had to take a zanex, but at least, it takes your mind off of that other bullsh-t, it damn sure makes you groggy, as all get out.
        Thanks for your concerns, an good luck with your grows.
        Have a nice Thanksgiving, my brother.

      Why are you just trying to add magnesium? There are many other elements and trace elements that the plant requires.
      What about adding molasses? It has magnesium in it.

        I've been watering with molasses at every other watering all along. Things wouldn't be so messed up if the kind soil hadn't run out of it's nutrition levels I think.

        Yeah...I don’t use that hot soil stuff. Gives better control when you know what is going into the plant and when.
        Question: if you are using the hot soil, and I assume you have followed the manufactures directions on usage and volume. How do you know the soil is depleted of its nutrients?
        Because too much salt build up can cause nutrient lock out, and the plant will still show deficiency in its leaves in that case too.
        Just trying to think outside the box here. Could you potentially be seeing a deficiency due to too much nutrient salt causing a lock out situation?

      Just thinking out of the box here. Maybe a soluble solid magnesium that you could mix with water right before watering?

        You can also read up on Mag-Amped by Cutting Edge Solutions. Has nothing but Mag and some Sulfur. I use Cal-Mag from the start up to the 3rd week of flower. After that, I start adding the Mag-Amped.

          I'll look into that. The trouble here is that I'm not even a hundred percent sure that it's magnesium that is needed. The plant is weiwei pale especially after the two gallon flush with pH water. Since she dried out I watered her with a quarter teaspoon Mega crop, and a teaspoon of Epsom salts. I started this thread because I read in the marijuana grow bible that granular magnesium isn't what one should use on these plants. I feel like I'm walking around in the dark. I realize now that I should have probably gotten a few successful grows under my belt with regular soil, and photos not Autos. So now I've got photos and auto some in kind soil and some not now. Way too much going on and way over my head.

        Toker, I know because the plant in question was supposed to have been an auto, which would have gone from seed to harvest in the time allotted for the soil. But this plant which were from a seed from Nirvana was is not an auto, it's a photo, and it is now over 5 months old. What all of its sisters in the group flowered And were harvested about the time I realized it is definitely not an auto. I repotted it into a 5-gallon cloth pot with kind soil. I moved it into the 12 12 room sometime ago. It's close to nearly five and a half months old now. This is the third time that I have run into plants that were supposed to be Autos but they are photos from seeds from Nirvana. I've also run into having ordered once particular strain for example ak48, and had 2 that are completely different. Anyway I'm juggling so many variables here. I'm just kicking myself like I said in an earlier post for not keeping it simpler. But when I get a plant that was supposed to be one thing and turns out to be another for a new grower that can be mind-boggling.

          Toker, being suspicious of this claim almost Falls in line with being suspicious of the claims with super soil such as kind soil that are supposed to feed a plant from start to finish. And this is supposed to include photos. Which take longer. And that's the trouble that I've run into here. The auto seem to be okay although my yield is nothing like you guys yet, but I'm working on all that. But the plants that have turned out to be photos have run out of the nutrients. Sohum in the slow process of repotting them into larger gallon cloth pots and giving them Mega crop. Again I feed them molasses a tablespoon every other watering, and recharge every other watering. But things aren't really looking up. My temps are between 75 and 79 to 80. My humidity is 35 to 45. I have fans. I have a 6 in exhaust carbon filter. Iph every single watering.

          Disagreed about the kind soil which, I am almost certain, has time released elements. The liquid feed is more direct. No time release.

          Clarify this for me here. You disagree with using kind soil and R Pro with using nutrients? I'm confused by your response. Sorry been a long day.

          Sorry. Long holiday here too. Plus kids are sick. No fun for anyone. Lol
          I meant the liquid nutrients are not comparable. I have never used kind soil, but am fairly sure they use time released elements to provide the correct amount of nutrition at the correct time. They have water activated compounds that slowly allow a specific amount of n-p-k to be absorbed with each watering over time.
