Tomatoes


Question
Can you recommend an organic fertilizer that is good for tomatoes and the best way to use it?

Answer
Dear Ann:

The Clean Air Gardening Company of Dallas, Texas offers an organic product called "Tomato Foodilizer" that they claim to be an effective tomato fertilizer that contains the specific nutrients needed for bountiful harvests of large, nutritious tomatoes.  I've never used this product personally, but you have a look at their website and decide if you want to try it:

My experience with Fish Emulsion fertilizers has been a positive one and is a good balanced organic fertilizer for tomatoes and vegetables in general. Follow label directions on any product you're using in the garden.  Be aware that most fish emulsion fertilizers have somewhat of an unpleasant odor after application for usually up to 24 hours.

Best wishes for a successful gardening season.

Sincerely,

Mack Jean
