Re: Arrrhhh.... BBA
I have been adding MgSO4 for the past 2 weeks, 3/4 of a tsp. along with 1 tsp. of seachem Eq. Will Mg affect the color of new growth in a mild deficiency?
Older leaves arnt really yellowing on me, everything has mostly been seen in new growth. But I have also read I believe from chucks site that Mg can affect the plants ablity to use iron properly, making it sort of look like iron deficiency.
If there isnt any Mg in my tap water, which is possible as the water company told me that there is about 5ppm on average which would mean that could change through the year..... So saying that there wasnt any Mg coming from the tap would I need to dose closer to 5ppm to see much of a difference in plant growth? for the past few weeks what I have been adding only breaks down to just under 2ppm Mg..... maybe the tank needs more than this?
