Can this product help with deterring raccoons? They keep digging up my lawn and a neighbor said that raccoons don’t like the smell of the Epsom salts.
Hi Kimberly- This product is a soil amending product and is not labeled for use as a pest deterrent, and we have not tested it for this purpose.
my elephant plant leaves turning yellow
Hi Rose- While Epsom salt can address magnesium deficiencies in plants which appear as yellowing leaves, there could be other reasons for your elephant ear plant's yellowing leaves. Overwatering, underwatering, nutrient deficiencies (other than magnesium), pests, or diseases can all contribute to this issue. I recommend checking the moisture level of the soil and ensuring your plant is getting the right amount of water and sunlight. If you have any questions, please give us a call- 1-800-285-7333. Thank you!
According to your guaranteed analysis Pennington's Epsom salt contains: 9.8% magnesium & 12.9% sulfur. Your words, not mine. (which only equals 22.7% of a whole) So then, WHAT is the remaining 77.3% made up of?
Hi there! You're correct in noting that Pennington's Epsom Salt lists a guaranteed analysis of 9.8% magnesium and 12.9% sulfur, totaling 22.7%. The remaining 77.3% primarily consists of water molecules inherent in the compound's crystalline structure. This water content is typical for magnesium sulfate heptahydrate and contributes to the compound's solubility and effectiveness as a plant nutrient. Thanks!
Please state the GUARANTEED ANALYSIS as written on the back of the bag, but which is such low definition that it is unreadable. I can see that it is Sulpher 12% but the Epsom Salt percentage is too blurred, however it doesn't look like 88%.
Hi there! The guaranteed analysis table reads the following: Magnesium-9.8% Water Soluble Magnesium Sulfur-12.9% Combined sulfur Derived from Magnesium Sulfate
