Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comHave you heard of using banana peels with epsom salt to stimulate root growth or in general to help tomato plants get a good start? Someone at my community garden recommended this. I’ve never heard of it. So, haven’t tried it.
I’d love any info or direction on using these elements.
Thank you!
