Using water to get rid of pests
What’s the best solution to use to spray vegetables for pest control? Is Epsom salt good and if so, what strength do I use?

It depends on what type of pest you are trying to control. I do not know what pests are controlled by Epsom salts. Many pests such as aphid and white fly can be controlled with a strong jet of water. Perhaps you can send a photo of the pests you are dealing with and I can better help you with their control.
Keep growing,
