Epsom salts, using sparingly (like a tablespoon or two in a gallon of water) helps plants to turn green. It helps them in their process of using sunlight to make chlorophyll and that is called the photosynthesis, absorbing energy from light.
Epsom salt is much cheaper than fertilizers and magnesium supplements purchased separately for your garden!
