Hi Geogia.
Welcome to the orchid Geeks
Epson salts over the years has had many "Wonder uses" I am sure 99% worked.
I use it on my orchids several times a year.
For me it helps to strenghten the plants leaves and growth, sure puts a nice green colour in the leaves.
for an ailing plant it also seems to be a tonic.
I use it at about 1 teaspoon to 10 lt of water (about 2 gallons) and just pour it over the leaves and plant using a water can with a rose head.
I bet many more growers will give you many more good uses for it
Great to put into the bath after a hard days work also.
cheerio
Ron
