First Beefsteak Pick of the Season!

Hey, @pennsif The only thing I have done, was to feed the plants with a tablespoon of epson salt every 2 weeks. I was also surprised that they came out this pretty.

I've just learnt about Epsom Salts - I believe it adds magnesium to the tomatoes which they sometimes lack. Did you just add the Epsom Salts neat as the powder or did you mix in water to apply?

I just spreaded the salt on top of the soil a few inches away from the stalk. That way it will slowly with watering and rain get to the roots.

Thanks for the tip @engineerprepper - I'm going to try that now.
