Epsom Salts

birdlady gave me a link the other day pertaining to recipes to use for low pH, alklinity etc.

My pH is running too low and I was wanting to use the Epsom salts that birdlady uses but I need to know how much to use. I've ready a bunch of links and don't remember where her post was.

So birdlady, if you are out there could you give me that link again, or do any of you know ?

Thanks! Cindy

 

Cindy,

You would normally use Epsom Salts to raise Magnessium levels Are you sure it was ES and not Baking Soda or something like that?

You are thinking of baking soda. He is a link for you

For some reason i thought it was epson salts. My mag is a little low too so I guess I can still use some of it and then soak my feet in the rest of it.

Thanks for the link. I made sure I made a copy of it this time.
