Hi folks,

Despite using TTF, my straw bale plants are showing signs of Mg deficit. What's the optimal treatment? Foliar Epsom salt spray?

Yes, use a foliar spray as well as a root drench. Use 1 tablespoon Epsom salts to the gallon. Since you are using straw bales, I would repeat weekly. They should green up rather quickly.
