    Hi neil, and welcome to the forum image

    I've just had a look at mine (a generic off the shelf bottle), and it's NPK ratio is 4-5-9.  On the front it says "with seaweed and magnesium".  I've no idea of the science behind it all image. I just bung it in my watering can once a week imageimage.

    Hi Neil - yes, use T******* or something similar with high K (potash - for fruit development). Start feeding every 7-10 days soon as the first tiny toms appear

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
