IMPORTANT: Always test your water and determine the lack of nutrients prior to treatment!
Magnesium deficiency is a common problem in hydroponic systems, particularly when using soft water or water sources with low magnesium content. Signs of magnesium deficiency include yellowing of older leaves, interveinal chlorosis, and poor plant growth. By regularly incorporating magnesium sulfate into your nutrient solution, you can prevent these issues and maintain optimal plant health.
