Mainly because that was all I had left of the Urban Farms fertilizers when my seedlings came up and needed a little boost. I use a lot of Apples and Oranges fertilizer because I have lemons, limes and a satsuma tree and they absolutely love the stuff. I never had but a few fruit per tree until I started using the Apples and Oranges.

I used the vegetable last year and they did good but this year they are doing even better. Last year I had all three types of fertilizer in my arsenal and from what I could tell there wasn't a huge difference in the Vegetable and the A & O so I just started using the A & O on everything at least until the tomatoes get ready to bloom then it is all TTF. I would probably have just as good a result using just the Vegetable on my citrus and I will probably try that too. I have had nothing but good things happen when using the three Urban Farms fertilizers I have tried; but the most spectacular results were with my tomatoes and citrus.
