I am a new to the gh scene, so I have lots of questions. Can you store fertilizer, epsome salts, and other gardening products in the gh or is there too much moisture?

I keep everything in the GH, under a table in sealed air tight containers.

I keep everything in my greenhouse. Epsom salt, compost, blood and bone meal and a bunch of other stuff and it's fine.

I think Epsom salt would be fine as well as most commercial fertilizers but not so much the kelp/fish emulsion type fertilizers. I avoid the question and store them.in my garage thru the worst of summer.

Yes if its sealed properly from moisture in a cool part in shade. Obviously a greenhouse is quite the opposite but it's more convenient having it in the growing area.

I kept small bankies of MPK and Calmag in my in the shelve part of a cupboard I was growing in, but they would absorb quite a lot of water especialy considering they are salt based.

The nutrients absorbing water ment I couldn't accurately weigh them unless using the whole bag.
