You may have heard that Epsom salt does wonders for you skin, but what not a lot of people know is that it can also do miracles for your garden! Yep, you read that right. Epsom salt is an ingredient that you can use to improve the health and the appearance of your garden.
It’s an easy to use and inexpensive alternative to other lawn care tool and gardening products that you can find at the supermarket, so you should give it a try. The benefits are definitely there.
For starters, you can use Epsom salt to bring leaves that might have gone brown back to life by restoring them to their original color. All you have to do is mix together two tablespoons of Epsom salt with one gallon of water and spray that mixture onto the leaves that have become brownish.
Another way Epsom salt helps your plants is by getting rid of weeds that might be suffocating them. When combined with white vinegar and dish soap, Epsom salt turns into an effective weed repellent that you can use whenever you see weeds starting to grow in your garden.
What’s more, it can help you keep nasty little pests at bay, so that your plants can grow healthy and big. Sprinkling a mixture of water and Epsom salt around your plants will ensure no bugs, slugs or snails will come near your beautiful plants.
