Wyke Garden: Tomato Feeding

Tomato Feeding

Another first for me. I fed our tomato plants yesterday. Bottle said to mix 20ml with 2.5 gallons (about one watering-can) of water. Which was enough for two plants, and should be applied every couple of weeks.

2.5 gallons on water on two plants is a lot. Should I put it on all at once and drown the poor things, or put keep a watering-can with diluted feed and apply it over the 2 week period?

What it is to be a novice (and at my age)!

I applied a generous amount of the feed to the plants and spread the rest over the other things I have growing - spring onions and carrots. That used up the entire can.
