Tomato Fertilizer Experiment RESULTS (Bloom Booster vs. Balanced) Pt.2 [Adv.15]

After 70+ days, I have finally come to answer what happens when you plant a tomato from transplant to maturity only using a certain kind of fertilizer (Control, Balanced, Bloom Booster). I hope this video proves helpful to you in your own gardening adventures!

If you have and questions or comments about the experiment, please let me know!

I use a higher N to P-K during vegetative growth to put on massive leaves and many stems, then I switch to a higher P-K than N ratio when it’s ready to bloom and fruit. Plants need different nutrients during different stages just as you stated in your conclusion. Great adventure!

I just heard of this Bloom fertilizer. I have to try it. My plants are not as full as I'd like and the blooms on my beans are tiny. The little blooms could have resulted from heavy storms but I'm hoping to still get a good crop. I'll let you know 😊 ty

Highly recommended it, now that my tomato plants are mature I've been giving them bi-weekly applications to great positive effect

[@ABetterMeee]

Bless your heart for sharing this knowledge with people

[@DrBleck35]

I agree. He's trying his best. But look at that plant.

[@MattyBeanz]

So it appears as if you might have used too much nitrogen when the Bloom Booster… since not outdoors it’s harder for the soil to flush.
Otherwise- appreciate the info

Look on the bag of bloom booster for a stamp. It should say bb10/52/10 or something. Recently I've purchased bloom booster but it had 15/30/15 in the bags eventhough the box said 10/52/10 on it. Check yourself. Look closely at the bags for stamp. Great video!

[@RyleesGA]

I just checked, and it says 10-52-10! I'll make sure to double-check the bag vs. the box from now on.

You should redo the experiment with the plants in the ground since there were no tomatoes produced…

[@RyleesGA]

If I redo it I'll have to do it next summer, but I have some ambitious plans for 2023 and redoing it will take up plant 3 slots. I believe the evidence of more blooms with bloom booster supports increased yield potential even if I wasn't able to fruit any.

Man’s out here running science experiments

[@cochise2423]

looks like a lighting problem to me. Put some reflective foil rap on the wall behind them.

[@RyleesGA]

For sure, since this video I've invested into upgrading my grow set up. Though I think its best to grow up to transplant stage rather than full mature plants.

[@indiefan23]

You should have a control using a 3-1-2 ratio fertilizer. I bet you'll get better production from it than all of them.

[@RyleesGA]

Depending on what happens this/next year, I'm open to redoing this experiment, this time outside and to full maturity with fruits

[@bobbycarvalho535]

You need nitrogen and potassium you don't need phosphorus now just a little bit

[@lw1624]

Unfortunately, tomatoes needs 85 f to fruit.

[@jc5066]

Fail.

[@charliejohnson3344]

Totally bogus experiment.
