Epsom Salt For Tomatoes Plants

[epsom salt for plants]Epsom salt is actually not a salt but a natural mineral compound with about 10% magnesium and 13% sulfur, in a chemical called magnesium sulfate. Magnesium is important for germination and chlorophyll production, aids in the transport of calcium into the upper parts of tomatoes and facilitates the absorption of nutrients.

The lack of magnesium or sulfur in the soil causes the tree to grow small, grow long and mature slowly, and because of that, Epsom salt becomes a "savior" for tomatoes.

Making soil additives when planting

When starting to plant tomato, put about 1 tbsp of Epsom salt on the bottom of the hole and cover with a thin layer of soil before sowing, planting or transplanting. Epsom salt enriches the nutrients of the soil and nourishes the plants from the roots, in addition to preventing stem rot, preventing the occurrence of flower rot.
