My father in law mixes it with crushed up egg shells and put it under his tomatoes when he plants them. I remember him saying it's really good for them but I don't recall what all he said about it. If I talk to him this weekend I will ask.

Always heard the same thing about Epsom salt but never studied on it?
Quick research says:

Epsom salt, or magnesium sulfate, is used in gardening because it provides plants with magnesium and sulfate, two essential nutrients. Magnesium helps with chlorophyll production, strengthens cell walls, and assists in the uptake of other nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus. Sulfate is crucial for chlorophyll production and also helps the plant utilize other nutrients.
