I really do not see any Ys in your pics but that doesn't mean there are none for you took such close ups. Brugs often put out tons of side growth. I snap all of that off for I prefer a standard form. Your best bet to see a bud is in the crotch of a Y. Look there. I didn't have time to really look hard at your pics for I am having people over soon. I thought I may have seen a bud in picture #2 but can't blow up your picture clearly enough.

I took this pic to show you subequal leaves and a bud in the crotch.

I also have used Miracle Grow for years but the older formula has a very high nitrogen content. I use with great results on all my in ground brugs as well as some of my potted ones the cheapest 16-16-16 granular form Home Depot sells or even 20-20-20. I leave it up to the plant to decide which it wants to eat more of. LOL

Epsom salts should probably not be used very often, but just as a pick me up once in awhile.
