Hi Hollyhockgirl,
Here's some links from here, TGHF, that we've had some conversations on it.. gives you some tips about it in each one...
TGHF\'s Posts about Epsom Salt For a quick run down on it, is it's really good for your
plants.. *alot of
plants benefit from it*
I scratch it into the soil/dirt 4 times during the summer, May 1st, June 1st, July 1st, August 1st... *Nothing past August for like in
growing places like myself,
zone 5*
I sprinkle it around the dripline/base of the
plant, *don't stratch tooooooo hard and hurt roots, but enough so it's worked into the soil..
***The dripline is where when it rains or you water with a hose on top of the bush and the water falls off the
plant and lands on the ground/soil/dirt...***
It can also be used as a foliar spray for
plants too..
Here's a direct link to
