Westland Epsom Salts

When to Apply
Apply Westland Epsom Salts during the growing season, from March to the end of September, repeating every 4–6 weeks where required.

How to Apply
Spread the granules around your plants and gently work them into the soil, taking care not to disturb the roots. Always follow the application rate shown on the pack.

During Dry Weather
Water after application during dry weather to help the nutrients move into the soil where they can be taken up by the plant's roots.

Use Only Where Needed
Epsom Salts should only be used where there is a recognised need for additional magnesium. Do not exceed the recommended application rate, as increasing the dosage may damage your plants.

What Are Epsom Salts?
Epsom salts are magnesium sulphate, providing plants with magnesium and sulphur in a water-soluble form.

Why Does Magnesium Matter?
Magnesium plays an important role in chlorophyll and photosynthesis, helping plants maintain healthy green foliage. When plants don't have enough available magnesium, one of the most noticeable signs can be pale or yellowing leaves.

Will Epsom Salts Fix Any Yellow Leaf?
Not necessarily. Leaves can turn yellow for several reasons, including watering problems and other nutrient deficiencies. Epsom Salts are useful where magnesium deficiency is responsible for the yellowing.

What's in Westland Epsom Salts?
Westland Epsom Salts provides 9.8% water-soluble magnesium (Mg) and 12.9% water-soluble sulphur (S). The GB/NI fertiliser declaration expresses these as 16.2% magnesium oxide (MgO) and 32.4% sulphur trioxide (SO₃).

What Are Epsom Salts?
Epsom salts are a source of magnesium, an essential plant nutrient. Westland Epsom Salts contains 10% magnesium and can be used to boost magnesium levels where plants need additional support.

Why Does Magnesium Matter?
Magnesium is an important component of chlorophyll, the green pigment plants use during photosynthesis. A deficiency can therefore show itself as pale or yellowing foliage.

Will Epsom Salts Fix Any Yellow Leaf?
Not necessarily. Leaves can turn yellow for several reasons, including other nutrient deficiencies, watering problems and natural ageing. Epsom Salts are useful when magnesium deficiency is responsible for the yellowing.

How Often Should I Apply It?
