There are two different compositions of tomato fertilizer, one low in Nitrogen and the other higher. I guess the high one would be used early and the low Nirogen would be used later. I should buy the both but use the higher N2 early. Correct? There are two different compositions of tomato fertilizer, one low in Nitrogen and the other higher.

That sounds correct to me.. use high nitrogen for green growth the other for budding and fruiting , assuming it has the ingredients for tha:t phosphorous and potash.

It all depends on your soil. This will add fertilization to your soil but, if the soil is poor you may want to add extra separately.

yea this soil is good but i found pro mix is better. pro mix allows for better nut uptake and after 2 weeks you will have to start adding your own nute.....ffof soil is usually way to hot and will burn your plants so try to cut it with something if you decide to use it.

Yes, Id recommend adding 1/2tsp per gallon to the water first, then add your nutrients. Finally PH correct if needed as it tends to raise the PH a bit. My plants have stronger branches and tougher leaves after adding this to my hydroponic nutrients.

I have had issues with this mix, the 29 grams comes out at 800, its suppose to come out at 1500. tomatos did not do well. e-mailed them 5 times and no answers. if you are using this for seedlings you will be ok. do your self a favor and buy the master mix and the Calcium Nitrrate, Magnesium sulfate and mix it yourself. if you mix the master blend first in a 5 gallon bucket then your epsom salt, and finally your calcium nitrate in that order your nutrients will not fall out of solution (they cannot bond properly) and this is why people see the white stiff on the bottom of the bucket. you can go to https://www.morgancountyseeds.com/store/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=487 and get every thing plus shipping for under 40 dollars. also and this is importation buy either a ph meter or a ph liquid pool kit on amazon. you need to be beween 6.2 and 6.5.

I never premix any fertilizer.... I mix what I need and use. Hope that helps you.

In some states organic compost material gets mixed up with chemical-based fertilizers. It is a shame. Check with the state Dept. of Conservation.

You know, I had horrible tomato luck last year. Nothing to do with this fertilizer, it was the variety of plants I got from a garden show that were NOT disease resistant. I will try this fertilizer again this year. You can mix with some compost and throw in the hole before you plant. Then dig a little hole near the base of the plant and put the fertilizer directly in every couple weeks. During the season.

There is a 6 month fertilizer packet under the cover. I have no idea what the nutrient value was/is.But I can tell you I had a fantastic crop of cucumbers. I just went out each evening and filled the water reservoir.

#1 has sodium nitrITE (ITE) #2 has sodium nitrATE (ATE) Please let me know if this helps.

I think most people mix with soil, could be used either way. It does not add nutrients, it is to loosen soil and RETAINS WATER.

Garranteed Analysis; Soluble Nitrogen(N) 0.2%; Soluble Potash(K2O) O.2% Does that help?

i do not see any reason you can't use fox farm's big bloom for any plant, but big bloom is not really a fertilizer. It is more of a soil condition that will in turn help the plant utilize the nutrients you give it. The name big bloom is a little miss-leading because it is used throughout the growing cycle, not just the flowering stage.i use the fox farm line-up ( liquids and solubles ) for all my container plants, but as soon as anything gets planted in the ground, i switch to cheaper alternative like tomato tone, garden tone, jacks classic or even miracle grow.i would consider researching what brugmansia needs for nutrients throughout the growing cycle before purchasing a specialized nutrient line. i do not see any reason you can't use fox farm's big bloom for any plant, but big bloom is not really a fertilizer.

sure it works in both. my advice: read LOTS of reviews, when in doubt--less IS more. FF can run hot so I would always use it at less strength and let the plants tell you how they're doing.

5 gallon is what I use for one tomato plant to give best results. From everything I've read, these plants need this space for growth and nutrients.

We use FoxFarm grow big until the plant is green and sturdy. Once flowers appear, out nursery man told to switch to the SuperBloom. Tomatoes still need calcium.

You have to mix this product first. It can be harmful to some plants at too high of a concentration.
