This includes a very large plastic bag of Epsom salts.

Not gardening centric, but you can make your own bath salts, and it's
good for sofening hard skin on yer tootsies :-)

But what is a large plastic bag?
I've bought it in 10lb tubs and 1/2 cwt sacks What is large to one
person is small to another.
if you have had tins of Epsom Salts then a 1kilo bag could be described
as large.


Haven't weighed it but probably 10 Kg+ in a heavy duty clear plastic bag.
Originally bought as a water treatment for use when brewing beer yea these
many years ago.

I could use it in a bath but I usually shower.

Small garden, mainly lawn at the moment.

The most likely candidates are citrus trees in pots outdoors (under
shelter for the moment). Plus a grape vine and a wisteria in "temporary"
pots.

Lawn is due to go next year (or the year after....)

Cheers
