Tomato meds: anyone try this?

@catjac1975 The deer here have no fear of anything. I once had a chow that would kill anything . One day I watch her repeatedly slam into a glass door,about 3 feet on other side of door 2 deer grazing.

From what I read, Epsom salts have no effect on pH.

After doing some reading, think my garden needs it.

I would guess that it shouldn't change pH, if used in the limited amount plants require.

I'm willing and happy to stand corrected, Seedcorn.

Especially if these sort of deficiency problems can be avoided: link.

I too have used epsom salt with tomatoes (in the hole, not sprayed). I can't really say there was any difference with or without it. Also put crushed eggshells around the plants- nothing too exciting happened.

Besides nitrogen, everything else in chlorophyll with one exception, the plant can get from air and water. The exception is magnesium.

Smart Red! You have a Facebook page.

Yes, I have a FaceBook page. The info came from a post by my cousin. I thought it interesting enough to repost it here. I don't do much on my FB page other than check what the grands are doing.
