You want about 80% of your basebsaturation to be Calcium and Magnesium at a 5/1-6/1 calcium to Magnesium ratio in your soil,too much Mag will tighten it up and take up too many cation exchange sites as well as hinder uptake of other nutrients
Well I couldn't say how much of either is in it..I put 2 handfuls of epsom in my soil mix that was about 1 MTR square and some dolomite and gypsum but mixed that with natural sand and soil . I've also top dressed with gypsum the other day. Do you think I should do a sprinkle of epsom again because it's so water soluble? or just leave it as I cant see any deficiency? . Haven't seeny plants in more than a week but my "grow partner "said they have hit the dog mesh and look lush so I'm guessing there pumping along

I added 2 hand fulls of Mag Sulfate granules to 3 cubes of soil mix and haven't added any the previous 2 years in comparison Ive added 75 or so kg of gypsum over the last couple of years. Mag isn't as big of a deal as people think,they don't call Calcium the king of minerals for no reason.
