The best way to take care of this in a basic stealth hydro system is to add 1 teaspoon of Epsom Salt for every gallon of water in your rez. I myself usually add 6 teaspoons to the basic system since thats about how high I fill it.

Epsom Salt in that quantity will lead to nutrient lock-up. I used ES (many times) about 10 years ago on my first couple of DWC crops. I've gained some wisdom on this subject in my old age.
It is more advisable to use an additive like Botanicares Cal-Mag or something like that.

I don't know I'm doing something wrong, but I never add Epsom salts. Does my foxfarm nutes include these?

I use the 3 fox farms, with one fox farm soluable, and super thrive....but no epsom salts? am i missing something?

Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate, its normally used as a bath salt but it can easily be mixed into water and added to your resevoir to add magnesium to the nutes. I am still having problems with yellowing leaves though and I believe it has more to do with the stealth hydro nutrients I am using. The reason I have initially used the epsom salts was because I had a yellowing problem 3 and a half weeks ago with the leaves where it got to a really bad point with leaves dying everywhere and yellowing up and someone suggested I add epsom salt on cannabis culture so I did and it seemed to help. As of the current time I am looking into buying fox farm nutrients at the end of this week and making a change of nutrients completely. Right now besides that the plants are all looking really good as far as the bud sites starting up and I'm excited to snap you guys some pics in the next couple days..

i just built me a step it up stealth hydro tub... and a tent as a matter of fact. what i wanna know is, what in the hell is up with all that yellowing and curling of the leaves...? u think it has sum to do with that tent? i used reflective thermal insulation to make mine( think rigid mylar ) and i think imma say that a fogger would work just as well if not better than the pump and lines in the early stages. i have the pump and i never really plugged it in... the fogger supported growth until the roots got into tha solution and tha damn hub always gets clogged up too, real pain in the ass...

It is doubtfully to do with my tent as I just bought this from hydrofarm who is a well established hydro company and also that if you are referring to the recent indoor tent problems where people were having yellowing of leaves that is from "HydroHut" not "hydrofarm" which is what I use and is a different company, there is also the homebox as well. I think the yellowing has to do more with my nutes and also the fact that my tub is too small and is having trouble supporting the 4 plants. I am dropping the stealth hydro crap nutrients as soon as I have the money. For people wondering if its environmental here are the average temperatures and humidity.

Day/Light On: 78-82 degrees, 23%-45% humidity (uncontrolled)
Night/Light Off: 72-77 degrees, humidity 20%-40%

Once again for those who haven't read, there are no pests, there is no mold, there is no fungi, the roots are healthy, the light is not too close to the plants, the leaves just yellow and it drives me crazy!

P.S. Jordan this is the link to hydrofarms site and the tent I have if you want to look closer. Hydrofarm - Hydrofarm HA33 Habitat 33 - 3.5' X 3.5' X 6.6'
