Epsom Salt Fertilizer
• Fertilize Your Plants: Sprinkle near the roots once a week to give your plants a growth boost. The magnesium and sulfate make the prime nutrients (nitrogen and potassium) in plant food more effective.
• Keep the Slugs at Bay: Pour a thin trail along the edge of your garden to keep slugs away. Add a little near your garbage can, too - raccoons don't like the taste, either!
• Keep Your Lawn Green: Add 2 tablespoons to a gallon of water and sprinkle on your lawn. The magnesium provides essential nutrients and prevents yellowing and the loss of green color.
Mix 2 cups of dry epsom salt to 1 cup granulated sugar and mix well. When planting, after digging a hole put about a tablespoon of the mixture in, then mix it with the dirt and plant. That would be for a small plant or bulb. If you're planting something bigger use more accordingly. When you are done planting, water well.
