What are people using for a ratio to water for foliar aplications?
The salts that I have are 10% soluble magnesium and 14% sulfur.
Thanks,
Phil

I've used it before at a recommended rate of 1 teaspoon per 1 gallon of water for foliar.

Over the years I've had a magnesium imbalance that I've fixed with K-Mag tilled into the soil and have not been supplementing with foliar this or last year.

Thanks Glen.
I will definitely look into that this fall, right now I'll use your suggested ratio.

Mix 1:1 with water and spray about 40 gallons through a Still backpack sprayer per plant. Especially if you have a 1385.
