Rather basic I know...
On the forums they say 1 teaspoon per 1 U.S gallon/3.75 litres.
Heres my issue, to mix a 2% solution I assume you want 2% salts to water ratio.
so in other words you want 2g per 100ml (1g solid = 1ml liquid)
so for 1 US gallon/3750ml you will have (3750/100) = (37.5, 100ml pots if you like)
so 37.5 pots and 2g per pot = 75g of Epsom salts per 1 US Gallon.
Everywhere says 1 teaspoon which I cant work out why they come to this? For mow I've gone with 1.5 teaspoons of Epsom in 5 litres of water but im trying to treat a deficiency and time is of the essence. someone help please.
peace
