Spring wake up to Late Summer (Every 4 to 6 weeks - 1/2 cup of citrus tone and 1 teaspoon of gypsum scratched into the top layer of the mix, cover with fresh compost and mulch) Water in.... Late Summer/Early Fall - Ripening & hardening off for winter (Stop all citrus tone "NO NITROGEN" switch to only 1 teaspoon of gypsum and 1 teaspoon of potassium sulfate scratched into the top layer of the mix, cover with fresh compost and mulch) Water in.... Because we have added the potassium sulfate to the soil we want to do a foliar feeding of epsom salt/magnesium sulfate to the bottom side of the leaves. This keeps the potassium from locking out the magnesium in the soil mix. This promoted ripening and hardening off for the approaching winter.
