Default Epsom salts - uses?

This includes a very large plastic bag of Epsom salts.

A quick search around suggests there may be benefits including helping
plants to green up.

However it may take many years to work through the bag.

I'm reluctant to just chuck it but also reluctant to store it for another
20 years.

Well, it could be useful for those who are fixated on growing plants to
perfection. :-)

Other possible on-topic uses he

What about donating some of it to a local horticultural/gardening society?
