Ginda, I asked experts at a blueberry meeting and they said there is no
danger of too much Epsom salts, within reason. I treated a few bushes with
about half a cup each and they did fine. Other possibilities for the
scraggly ones: pine voles underneath. Or poor drainage in that spot. Or
maybe that spot was limed in the past.
