Extended Product Information

FAQs

When should I start feeding my tomato plants?

Begin feeding as soon as the first tiny green fruit trusses start to form on the plant.

Can I use this on other vegetables?

Yes, this product is specifically formulated for heavy-feeding fruiting plants like tomatoes, peppers, and aubergines.

How often should I feed my greenhouse tomatoes?

For maximum yield in greenhouse environments, it is recommended to feed the plants twice a week.

Does this help with blossom end rot?

Yes, the nutrient profile is designed to help plants take up calcium more effectively, which helps prevent blossom end rot.

Should I feed my plants if the soil is very dry?

No, it is best to moisten the soil with plain water first before applying the diluted feed to ensure even absorption.

Troubleshooting

Visible white crust on the soil surface after feeding

This may be an accumulation of mineral salts; ensure the feed is properly diluted as per instructions and water the plants with plain water between feeding cycles.

Leaf tips appearing burnt

You may have accidentally splashed the concentrate on the foliage. Always apply directly to the soil and rinse any accidentally affected leaves with clean water.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly increases fruit yield compared to unfed plants
  • Easy-to-use liquid concentrate with integrated measuring cap
  • Helps prevent blossom end rot
  • Improves nutrient absorption in dry soil
  • Economical 2L bulk size

Cons

  • Requires regular weekly application for best results
  • Must be kept away from plant foliage to avoid potential leaf scorch
  • Storage space required for the 2L container

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first use, shake the container vigorously to suspend the active nutrients. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight and away from reach of children or pets. This feed is compatible with most soil types and is specifically balanced for fruiting crops like tomatoes, peppers, and aubergines. Always ensure your soil is already moist before applying the feed to prevent root shock and encourage better uptake. Avoid applying the fertilizer to dry, cracked soil without pre-watering, as this can lead to uneven distribution of the nutrients.
