What are the results of adding Epsom salts to plants which are not growing? We have had excessive amounts of rainfall several times this growing season. Some of my plants are not getting any bigger and look wilted with some yellow leaves. Will adding Epsom salts mixed with water help them?
Likely not. This is stunted growth caused by a lack of oxygen to the roots. There is not much you can do for them other than to try to improve their drainage.

Is it safe to add a fertilizer to a garden after it has started producing? Not producing as I think it should.
Yes, you can. Make sure that you water the plants well before you fertilize to keep the fertilizer from burning the roots.
Wondering if it would be better to put out 13-13-13 fertilizer this year as you are tearing up the garden.
Get a soil test before you add anything more to your garden. Your local extension office offers soil tests kits with directions on how to use them. Your soil sample goes to your state lab for analysis and they will be able to tell you exactly what amendments you may need to add as well as how much of each. The fee for the service is nominal. It's a cheap and easy way to make sure your ground is at it's optimum for next spring's garden.
