I checked the mint this morning and it is completely dead to the ground.  No
sign of any growth coming up.  So it looks like we have discovered a selective
killer for mint that will help everything else around it.  Maybe someone with a
mint problem can try it on a control patch.  I used 1/2 cup Epsom Salts in a
gallon of water and then sprayed it on.

None of the other plants I listed have been harmed.  The peppers have turned a
rich dark green, so they sure like it.
