* Epsom Salt (teaspoon) around tomato plants to green up the foliage.

Epsom salt baths:

* Use around one to two cups per bath; you can start with a little as a tablespoon.

* Dissolve the salts in hot water first and then fill the bath to a comfortable level and as hot as you can manage.

* Vary water temperature and amount of Epsom salts until you find a ‘blend' that's suits you.

* Epsom salts baths are very calming for most people and most effective just before going to bed.

* A 20 to 25 minute soak will generally suit.

* If a dry clear-white powder develops just rinse it off it is annoying or irritating.

* If your skin is too dry, use moisturiser.

* Swallowing the water will almost certainly result in a ‘runny tummy!!'
