Trace Mineral Mix for the Garden

[Granny Smith]

I know this formula is posted somewhere on the site, but I couldn't find it, so I'm posting it again. This is really good stuff.

Trace Mineral Mix for the Garden

Trace minerals are fertilizers and a good mixture for 1/4 acre garden is:

1/4 lbs Borax
5 lbs Zinc Sulfate
5 lbs Epsom Salts
1 lbs Copper Sulfate
5 lbs Iron Sulfate.

Apply at the rate of about 1 cup per 50 foot row.

Spread mixture over garden taking care to keep it out of eyes or on skin.

This will last several years for small home gardens, if kept dry. I mix, then store it, in a bucket with a lid.

Where do you get any of this?

[Granny Smith]

I got everything except the Epsom salts and borax at the feed store. I got the Epsom salts and borax at Walmart.
