Skip the Salt Comments By: Anon Salt (plain table salt) is toxic to plants, and it can build up in the soil. Leave it out of this recipe, and then maybe try it.   Great Mix, love it. Comments By: joe b. Ok, Epsom Salt is not toxic to the soil, people have used it for eyons to fertilize their roses. It is safe, just dont use Table or Sea salt.   Gardens?
