Better than spending money on epsom salts.Little Green Penguinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10873626565561255525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787840329572416620.post-31690736779780213972009-09-16T10:48:19.784-04:002009-09-16T10:48:19.784-04:00Yes, epsom salts are great for plants, and you may...Yes, epsom salts are great for plants, and you may want to try putting used coffee grounds as a mulch, since it's acid loving. I've never been able to grown ivy until now, because I've been dumping my leftover coffee in the pot, and it's growing like crazy!Kim from Milwaukeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787840329572416620.post-28715938146095736522009-09-15T16:12:45.185-04:002009-09-15T16:12:45.185-04:00When our gardenia leaves start turning yellow, I s...When our gardenia leaves start turning yellow, I sprinkle some epsom salts around them.

I watered my potted pine tree I use as a Christmas tree one night and poked my eye really bad with one of the big needles. Not fun and now I try and do early evening waters instead of late night.mudnessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10542400857346376155noreply@blogger.com
