Epsom salts usually does the trick for tomatoes when they show this

symptom

Just last night I was reading in the May 2006 "The English Garden" to
use 2oz of Epsom Salts around roses as the magnesium was good for
them.

I've not come across this before. Anyone do it and recommend it? And
what else likes epsom salts?


It's another one of those 'old gardener' tricks for any plants showing signs
of magnesium deficiency.
