Everybody’s Mother

Today’s question has to do with gardening:

Dear Mom, my tomato plants are drooping and the leaves are turning yellow at the bottom. I have a few tomatoes but they are green. What do I do?

Mom says, Try some epsom salts! I usually dig a small handful into the soil around my plants to give them a little boost, especially if there’s been a lot of rain. Rain is good, but too much at once can wash the minerals away and plants need their minerals just like you do! More info on epsom salts in the garden from the Epsom Salt Council.
