New Grower magnesium and manganese

[organic]

I know this is a common problem I've suffered before and used epsom salts to sort it out but while in the 99p shop today they had this in there garden section. Do autos live long enough to suffer from this deficiency?

Any info on it would be good. Avoid or stock up on a few?

Sounds like one of these: http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/index.php/item/bush-doctor-boomerang.html

Autos will definitely live long enough to show nutrient deficiencies, so that could be useful. You could try a small bit through the grow ... I wouldn't just dump that into the soil at the beginning and call it a day.

I have not bought it. Just seen it in there, so thought I would ask a bit more about it.

what could it be made of ? theres not many 'organic' sources of Magnesium is there ?

I asked earlier on the Live Help Thread would Magnesium/Zinc pills work if crushed in soil ??

if Mg is added in whatever shape or form to the medium is it not still available as the element it is ???

See you have same issue as me chopper, slow loading pages that sometimes never load and when they do they have posted the reply multiple times. Why this happens I don't know, only here on this site does it happen to me.

Being in the 99p shop its anyone's guess as to whats in it

Maybe an email to the company is in order see what they have to say.

Organic- :no: Don't mess with that stuff, especially with nute' sensitive auto's... It looks like a shotgun blast of time release nute's, and will likely FUBAR your grow and nute' regime,... If you need extra Mg use a dedicated supplement (Ca-Mg), or molasses (which has Ca, Mg and K in mild quantities, and are chelated), or epsom salt (MgSO4).... Mn is a micro nute', and I have yet to see a definite defc. of this here,... most all quality fert's will have this in sufficient amounts... If there's a perfect supplement for rare metal defc., it's GreenAll brand Fe-Mn-Cu-Zn + 2-0-0 N liquid...
... Nute' defc. is hardly an uncommon issue with any MJ plants auto/photo,... Mg and Ca are hands down the most common!
...Chopper, pills may have a different formulation, and definitely other crap in them, so I'd avoid using them as nute's for MJ,.... As far as organic goes, it's something a loose term by definition,.. look it up and see what I mean! ...ferts, not derived from synthetic salts are generally "organic",.. for Mg, molasses is "organic" approved I believe because it's derived from a natural (plant) source....

I must say I had no intention of buying it. I was just wasting time in town. Epson salts always done me fine when / if needed. I just seen it in there range in amongst all the other crap they sell and after reading the packet thought I would ask some more about it.

Thanks for a detailed reply though Waira :thumbs:
