Another thought . . . spraying CS on the surface of the plant's soil might help prevent mold building up.
I watered my Corn Plant (dracena masageana) with CS last year and it grew tremendously during the winter, which is normally a very slow to no growth period particularly for a slow growing low light plant like this. Someone brought up the fact that CS might kill of the beneficial soil organisms, but the plant is in a pot, the dirt, unless constantly refreshed is likely pretty dead. I fertilize regularly so it is basically a hydroponic set up. I saw no ill effects on the plant, only fantastic growth, from several months of watering with 10 ppm CS. I gave it all my yellow batches when I was working out the bugs.
