Phostrogen tomato feed
Why have a specific Tomato Food?
Our trials have shown that tomato plants do not use as much Phosphate as many plants. We have accordingly adjusted the formulation to maximise the results.
How do I apply it?
Apply at recommended rates at every watering after the first flower truss has set with fruit.
How do I use Tomato Food with ring culture. When do I start feeding and why?
Only apply after the small fruitlets can be seen on the first flower truss. Failure to wait until this point could cause the plant to stop producing flowers and so drastically reduce the harvest
What is blossom end rot and how does Tomato Food help?
Blossom end rot is caused by a combination of calcium deficiency and poor watering. This results in dead brown patches forming at the tips of developing fruits. Tomato food contains calcium which will help to minimise the risk of this deficiency occurring.
Can I use it to feed flowers?
As a high potash feeds it can be used to feed flowering plants as recommended by many garden writers
Can I use Tomato Food in Fertigation devices?
Because of its specific formulation Tomato Food can clog up in Phostrogen fertigation devices. As such this practice is not recommended.
