A phosphorus-forward organic feed built for tomatoes and other fruiting veg. Great for containers and raised beds if you can live with the fish smell and slower payoff.
Pros
- Higher phosphorus (6) supports flowering and fruit set on tomatoes and peppers
- People- and pet-safe organic ingredients, no synthetic chemicals or GMO chicken manure
- TruBiotic mycorrhizae help roots establish and improve drought tolerance
Cons
- Pungent fishmeal/organic smell can attract animals; water it in well
- Premium price per pound compared with synthetic tomato foods
- Slow-acting; results build over weeks, so apply early and follow label rates
