Treating a Magnesium deficiency in Tomatoes.
 

I think my son's tomatoes have a Magnesium deficiency. Trolling the
internet, the consensus seems to be to treat with Epsom salts, but I am
not sure how to go about this so how would I go about using this
treatment? What dosage? What dilution? How to apply; spray or dig in ?

Buy it from a garden centre and follow the instructions! My packet says 35
g per 4.5 litre of water.

I would also feed with a balanced tomato feed (e.g. Chempak high potash or
Tomorite)
There may be other deficiencies as well which these will help sort out.
Apply with watering can to soil or other growing medium (:-).
