After transplanting seedlings in to small pots, I use this fertilizer before the plants are set out in the garden. Gives them a boost and a better start!

I recently bought a little bing tomato plant at costco (I live in the pnw) as they looked good in the store and I wanted to try my hand at growing vegetables this summer as I had never done so. The plant was far along and near max height with a fair amount of marble-sized green tomatoes already showing. I repotted -- into a five gallon bucket that I had laying around as I didn't want to invest a lot for my first time -- I primed and painted the outside to make it more presentable. I then added this initially and then about 2 scoops every week. The plant is thriving and I picked my first ripened tomatoes and they tasted great.Now I understand there are a lot of variables for proper growing of vegetables or anything for that matter (see online videos on any topic you can imagine) but I just wanted to share my experience using this. There are a lot of fancier boutique vegetable and tomato specific fertilizer on amazon and they also appear to work well per the reviews, however they are more costly. I may try some of those next year to see how they work. As for this summer, I am using this product and it appears to be working great.

Although this is sold as a tomato plant food, the packaging suggests it can be used for most flowering and fruiting vegetables. These include squash, peppers, cucumbers, and carrots. All of these plants prefer a slightly acidic soil, but tomatoes do better with a PH of 6.2 to 6.8. To prevent blossom rot, tomatoes often require an additional supplement of calcium and magnesium. Calcium is also beneficial to carrots, peppers, lettuce, and a number of others. Calcium is a macronutrient that contributes to plant growth, development, and disease resistance. It is necessary for cell walls and chlorophyll synthesis. It is an important component of the cell membrane and helps maintain the structure of the cell wall. This plant food does include magnesium, but not calcium.This plant food does seem to work for my tomatoes, peppers, and lettuce, but I also periodically use a calcium/magnesium supplement for some of my plants. It should also be noted that when this fertilizer is used with a watering can, it should be added after you fill the watering can with water. If you add it to the watering can before adding the water, you will get a half watering can of foam.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Works as describedA+

This is what you want for fruiting vegetables . If you buy a fertilizer that is not a balanced NPK all you get is vines and leaves. The P & K produce the fruit.

I've used this product for years but this year, I can't find it anywhere in the stores near me. Good fertilizer! Near had a bad year using this.

Whoa, I was NOT expecting it to work THAT fast! Haha.This is my first time ever experimenting with Miracle Gro, and I'm pleasantly shocked!! To test it, I separated the stem of those purple flowers from its main bouquet, and placed them in a narrow bottle; I'm going to say its size is around 8 ounces or so...because I've forgotten, and am using a guesstimate haha. Since there aren't any official measurement ratios of how much (of this particular type, at least?) Miracle Gro to add to smaller containers like vases, bottles or 6"-8" diameter pots, a chance were taken with a minimal amount, as shown. I'm supposing those serving sizes are near the equivalent of a 1/16 teaspoon, or less.Using those meager measurements with one or two stems of standalone flowers, in their own vase/bottle filled to the brim with water, their blossom growth practically exploded.All the purple ones in the bottle were all closed, pre-bloom, merely sitting in fresh water, so I added the Miracle Gro that night. By morning, only the top bud had blossomed widely. The following day, the entire stem lit up with blooms, as you can see in the "after 2 days" photos. For the lilies, a duo of them were already opened upon arrival; then, two days later, they practically went from a narrow "v", to an expansive "w". The buds that were previously closed also began to peek out at the world beyond them a bit, as well.Adding this Miracle Gro type to a larger bouquet of flowers didn't show much difference, to me, aside from the purple flowers doing away with their shyness, and perhaps the roses widening a tiny inch, but nothing as groundbreaking as all the closed buds opening as if they'd seen a tree pull itself up by the roots and start walking down the street, as compared to the single container stems. I'll experiment more with those soon.But, hey! Overall, this stuff impactfully seems to work!
