00:00:04 Magnesium's important in the plant. Magnesium's typically high in the, in the soils around here, at least in our geography, especially in the river bottoms 00:00:11 and the creek beds, it's tends to be higher and it's abundant in the soil, but it's not always plant available 00:00:17 and it's hard to get in the plant at times. One is magnesium's a double positive charge in soil, so it's gonna bind up pretty quick with a negative 00:00:26 or whatever's in there and not be plant available. Two, it's, it competes with other nutrients in the plant to come up, you know, if we got potassium racing in the 00:00:35 plant, mag's gonna, gonna lag off just by nature of the beast. So magnesium is important, 00:00:41 but we can't always get a plant available and we're trying to figure out ways to correct that because it has a lot of importance in the plant, A lot to do 00:00:50 with nutrient flow within the plant. Keeping things moving, uh, keeping things, processing the plant, cement, 00:00:55 enzymatic reactions within the plant and, and keeping things turning. So, so to speak. I mean, it, 00:01:01 my analogy is it's a pretty crude one, but there's a reason they make milk of magnesia for humans, right? 00:01:07 So just think of that, of root exudation and all that stuff. So, I mean, it keeps things moving up 00:01:16 and down the plant key in that keying in all those en enzymatic reactions that the plant needs to function. 00:01:22 If you have too much magnesium in the soil, then it becomes a big binder, right? And it, it just ties up everything. 00:01:28 'cause it doesn't create enough air space in that soil particle to hold anything. So it becomes a bully, so to speak, in the soil 00:01:36 and pushes a lot of things out that are, won't be planned available. So you can fight that. We fight 00:01:40 that on the river bottoms here in the Missouri River bottom. It's a big deal. Some 00:01:44 of Kelly's river crick beds and stuff are high mags. We fight that. But you can get in spots where we don't have enough magnesium, uh, 00:01:50 and needs to slopes, you know, we're calciums dominant so we still limited there 'cause we don't have enough either way. 00:01:56 So, and if we don't have either one of those imbalance, 00:02:00.265 --> 00:02:02.085
