Opinion poll
Which in-the -box or produced organic fertilizer do you like best for your tomatoes.I know many of you do all kinds of exotic things but let's just keep it simple.

I think most people will say tomatotone
Osmocote gets my vote as the best non-organic fertilizer. |

I am not organic;
I have 3 or 4 kinds of fertilizers bu MG blue water soluble ( 24-8-16) is my most used one. My garden soil is already very rich in P, medium K and low in N. Gardeneer |

I use both Garden Tone (Espoma) and Dr. Earth Organic 5 for tomatoes, vegetables and herbs. Both are great products, imo.

Texas Tomato Food is not organic but I have loved the results. Using third year in a row. I have used tomatotone for containers. For soil I am one of those "exotic" people- do soil testing, adjust minerals, add biology etc.

Well I've been feeding the tomatoes with Texas tomato food for a couple of weeks and all I can say is Dauuum. The plants are darned near yellow with flowers. Never seen anything like it. I've become a victim of my own success trying to figure out what I'm going to do with all these tomatoes coming.
