    if your plants are magnesium deficient, yes. Otherwise, no. It's a good option for adding magnesium if your plants are particularly magnesium hungry, but otherwise not calcium deficient. If you have no deficiencies, I wouldn't add any

        Easy with the salts, if you dont need it you can cause toxicity. If you use tap water, you have plenty. (check with your water provider)

          Smoky, I agree with that opinion, especially if One uses well water. If You are un sure, contact the local water company for a report on the contents of the water that they are providing You. If You are on a privet well, testing of the contents can be done by most testing laboratories.
