The Magic Of Epsom Salts - Adding Epsom Salt to Houston SoilBook Preview:Some gardeners say that adding Epsom Salt to Houston soil works magic. In a previous post on soil pH I suggested that if you are going to adjust your soil’s acidity for one nutrient (calcium), you should adjust for shortages or imbalances of Magnesium, Sodium and Potassium as well. Adding Epsom Salts to Houston soil is one way to do that.Epsom Salts is a natural mineral that was discovered in the well water of the town of Epsom in England. The chemical composition of Epsom Salts is hydrated magnesium sulfate (10% magnesium and 13% sulfur).The Benefits of MagnesiumThe good news is, most vegetables can find the Magnesium they need in the soil, but roses, tomatoes and peppers will benefit from a boost of the minerals that Epsom Salts provide. Magnesium is:•A critical mineral necessary for good seed germination.•Vital to the production of chlorophyll (which plants use to turn sunlight into food).•An aid in the absorption of other essential macro-nutrients.Calcium, Magnesium and Potassium are macro-nutrients that compete with one another for absorption into plant roots. In most cases, however, Magnesium loses the race against Calcium and Potassium.And BUY this book, if you want more!In this book, you can find out: garden soil,garden soil 0.75,garden soil 2 cu,garden soil 2 cu ft,garden soil 2 cubic,garden soil 2 cubic feet,garden soil 2cf,garden soil 3 cubic feet,garden soil 32 quart,garden soil 3cf,garden soil 4 cubic feet,garden soil 40 at,garden soil 40 lb,garden soil 40 pound,garden soil 707,garden soil additives,garden soil all purpose,garden soil amendments,garden soil analyser,garden soil auger,garden soil bags,garden soil block,garden soil book,garden soil bulk,garden soil cart,garden soil compost,garden soil containers,garden soil cover,garden soil cubic feet,garden soil digger,garden soil enhancement,garden soil fertilizer,garden soil flowers,garden soil for roses,garden soil for tomatoes,garden soil for vegetables,garden soil heater,garden soil holder,garden soil hydrometer,garden soil improvement,garden soil innoculant,garden soil inoculant,garden soil insecticide,garden soil kellogg,garden soil kit,garden soil knife,garden soil large,garden soil large bags,garden soil lb,garden soil miracle gro,garden soil miracle grow,garden soil mix,garden soil mixer,garden soil moisture sensor,garden soil natural,garden soil nutrients,garden soil organic,garden soil outdoor,garden soil pellets,garden soil ph meter,garden soil ph test kit,garden soil ph tester,garden soil prime,garden soil raised bed,garden soil rake,garden soil roses,garden soil scoop,garden soil sieve,garden soil sifter,garden soil small,garden soil starter,garden soil test,garden soil test kit,garden soil tester,garden soil testing kit,garden soil thermometer,garden soil vegetables,garden soil warmer,garden soil warming,garden soil with fertilizer,garden soil with sand
