- Give your tomato plants the food THEY need to give you the food YOU need!!!
In this video, we delve into how to fertilize tomato plants and other fruiting crops for a successful harvest. Fertilizing tomato plants is something that confuses many gardeners, but by following some straightforward principles, your tomato garden will pump out more tomatoes than you can imagine. Growing tomatoes at home is such a great thing to do, especially with rising food prices, and getting the most out of your crop through solid fertilizing techniques will allow you to truly reap the fruits of your labour.

Hey Growers!!! Hope your gardens are turning out some incredible harvests as we near the end of the growing season in many regions. What method have you been using to fertilize your tomato plants? What do you think of the tips in this video? Let's hear it!🙂👊🍅🔥
I just re-watched your older lettuce video…glad to see you’re still at it!
Great presentation Lucas and great crops to show us. Thanks
Jim.
Growing a successful garden makes ME want to dance, too.
At 73yo, I 'dance" in my head and just enjoy the fruits of my labor.
you are SO right about the inorganic fertilizers, i see so many people saying otherwise but i disagree. enjoyed the video, thanks :^)
TY, FOR YOUR HONESTY👍
I don’t understand why so many CZcamsrs just CAN NOT get to the point in one minute!
Wouldn’t make money. That’s like buying a book that only has 1 paragraph
You can skip the video you know. There are background info that’s valuable to some other people.
@@jono601Ah yes; because the 20 seconds of stupid dancing is so valuable for learning about tomato fertilization.
@@johnbankston72 you do realize CZcams videos are part entertainment too right? It’s not a peer reviewed paper. There’s always some sort of setup/intro to these tutorial videos. The CZcams video with zero personality mostly get 5 views on CZcams. All popular channels contain some sort of personality charisma.
@@johnbankston72😂😂
Excellent video. Very helpful and you grow beautiful tomatoes!
Good stuff love the honesty . I was a huge organic person, but this season i decided to switch it up so i did my organic soil mixture as usually ,but added in to routine fish emulsion and jack's water soluble bloom booster and tomato feed. Its amazing people should try them out!
Great video! Your garden and harvests look amazing!!! The proof is in the pudding; your methods obviously work well. I try to grow organically for the most part, but occasionally supplement with Fox Farms liquid fertilizers (which aren’t organic). I’m in agreement with you on a hybrid approach. I like that liquid fertilizers are instant, so the plants don’t have to wait for the time-release granule fertilizer to break down. Neptune’s Harvest liquid fertilizers are pretty good too! I’ve also used DaKine 420, but had to dial it back to avoid burning the plants as well as attracting pests.
Thanks Vanessa!! I’ve heard a lot about Fox Farms fertilizers but have never tried them. It hasn’t been the best season for my tomatoes, how are yours doing and where are you growing?
I enjoyed the video and the honesty. Well said and explained and kept the video moving. Subscribed after the whole video. You take care too!
Thanks so much! Hope you find more on the channel you’ll enjoy.
I agree 💯 I use both organic AND inorganic fertilizers and I have always had great results and have plenty of earthworms and a healthy soil. Nothing wrong with using both, IMO! 👍🏼
Thanks for being on my side with this Amy! How has your season been for tomatoes and whereabouts are you growing?
Excellent information, thanks!!
I live in Houston and it's February 22 and I am setting out my tomato sets, we have to start early here because by July it will be too hot for much fruit production. Not to mention we have lots of problem insects. But I like your idea of the fertilizer ratios.
Cool! I was stopped in Houston for the first time on a road trip in December! Good luck with it.
Those are some cool dance moves!
That's for the info!
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Hopefully I'll have better luck this year. All I got was one tomato and lush leaves with flowers that never turned into tomatoes. I started earlier this year. I live in South Texas. Great information.
This year try touching all flowers with an electric vibrating ultrasonic toothbrush. This vibration will activate polination. Worked great for me last year! Good luck!
Thank you!
lucas thanks and love your intro
Your channel is really underrated
Your tomatoes looks beautiful
Excellent video. The dancing at the start got my attention, and the rest of the well-paced, information-dense video kept me watching until the end!
Thanks for the kind words Trevor!
Appreciate the helpful video and impressive dance moves!
Thanks!
Thanks for the video. I completely agree with you on inorganic fertilizers. But I tend to prefer organic only because I'm lazy and just want to apply directly out of the package and not worry about burning the plants with inorganic lol.
Dude the sheer fact you did that dance with such confidence is enough for a like/ sub from the wife and I....The video was very informative thanks very much bud!!!
Nice work bro up top
Up top 👋
I sub because you are from Canada.
Thanks
Nice video
Thanks Daniel!
I do the same thing, the only difference is I don’t use miracle grow, I use Fox farm fertilizer, it’s amazing.
😇 wonderful...let me say that you got it - the pattern. too much N is too much N of course and indeed anything including P and K, and for micronutrients like boron, even more easily overdone. but too much N is easy to do so that warning is totally warranted - with any plant. peppers can be fertilized as indeterminate tomatoes - plants that are ripening fruits even as they are shooting flower buds. that base treatment of compost etc. is very good. i'd emphasize calcium (bonemeal and eggshells) though the N, P, and K being already in the base of compost and calcium is or should be, by weight and volume, the primary vegetative or grow (vs. reproductive) nutrient (not N) so that the plant can continue reproductive growth. the drench of 15-30-15 is good as the crop changes over to reproductive stage which comes mostly within 45 days of germination. the 18-18-21 is good (though i would prefer a 15-15-30 when the plant is filling up fruit (called fruit fill, past the cell division stage). because these plants are ripening fruits even as they are shooting flower buds - the vegetative and reproductive stages are intermeshed!, i would alternate the high P(15-30-15) and high K (18-18-21) weekly, (although i must say this depends on your growing season). but again, take care of the calcium...mygreathanks and blessings
I recently found out that a study of organic grown produce in 5 areas in the US had lower nutrient levels in the food than those grown with man-made fertilizer was done by a physician with no connection to big ag. I think what is important is not using man-made pesticides and herbicides on plants. So, to get the most nutrient dense food, you have to grow it yourself using man-made fertilizers and whatever natural fertilizer you want, but no inorganic pesticides and herbicides.
Wow that’s very interesting Ann. Would you be able to provide a link to the study? I get a lot of viewers criticizing inorganic ferts.
Can I use 15.15.15 fertilizer for cherry tomatoes?
Sure!
1 spoon NPK dilute with howmuch water 5 liter or 10 liter? please explain thank you
Always best to _underfertilize_ than over!
How did the Big Beef v Big Beef plus do?
Hi Matthew! Unfortunately the tomatoes ended up getting blight early so the harvest was greatly reduced. I don’t remember a notable difference between the two but will definitely have to do more testing in the future to draw any conclusions.
@@lucasgrowsbestyt oh no! So sorry to hear that! I grew Big Beef for the first time this year and it just edged to first in my garden in the 15 gallon container, 27.11lbs off the plant. In fairness, I think of it was in ground, it would have been lights out but in a pot, Rapunzel nearly managed to beat it out as a cherry. Decent plant tho and definitely will grow Big Beef or Big Beef Plus next season! Try maybe more K to help with the blight maybe?
NPK 15-30-15 for vegetatif or generatif?
NPK 10-10-10 for vegetatif or generatif?
Please explain...thank you
15-30-15 and 10-10-10 should both work fine as both a veg and fruiting fert. The key thing is you DO NOT want nitrogen to be higher than phos or potassium.
Bad Drought in Ontario did not make the tomatoes grow giant
Drought??? We got lots of rain
@@lucasgrowsbestyt beginning of July we did

10 10 10 then 18 18 21,thanks
Organic grown tomatoes have about 10-15% more nutrients and about double the polyphenol levels Vs synthetic grown tomatoes. There is zero point in adding manure etc if you gonna use ionic fertilizers. What's the point!? You can definitely get high yields with organic but you have to have a really healthy soil food web.
Wait....I thought you changed the name of the channel, or is there 2 channels?
That was just a phase, it should be out of his system now.
Yes, literally everyone I told about the channel couldn’t remember/say the new name! Plus I didn’t realize how good the original was until it was gone.
What can I take to make me dance like you 😁
Hahahahaha 😹
How comes you can’t get to the point
It’s too sharp
So you pretty much grew supermarket synthetic miracle grow tomatoes…
You are babbling so much nonsense.
Organic fertilizers are not better, they’re chemically the same! The plants won’t see the difference.
Dancing helps the plants. Unless you listen to wap music!
Tested and approved??? ...didn't they say that about a recent mandated insertion into you arm??? As they say in Glasgow.."...aye, right pal"
I turned this off when you started dancing
Came close lol
Your loss
This stinks.
No entiendo lo q hablas pero me gusta tus videos
