What fertilizing method do you use for your tomatoes?
We've added Sea 90 around mature transplants as well as kelp, azomite, oyster shells alfalfa and vermicompost in the initial potting up of transplants.

Hi Yvonne, it looks like you've provided good fertility for your plants to be off to a good start. As they progress into the season, you can start topdressing the soil with a few inches of compost every three or four weeks. Look to the plant for hints as to how you are doing. Yellowing lower leaves would suggest nutritional deficiency.
