    I’m going to start using Ultrasol, how many gallons of water do you mix per pound of fertilizer though? Approximately. Thank you for your help

      @austinhirsch9286 that will depend on what injector you're using and how much you need to irrigate. I use however much water it takes to dissolve (the amount of fertilizer I need) and carry it out the line to the field. Solution volume isn't really critical, only the amount of fertilizer in the solution/ acre. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching

    What size plastic are you laying, how wide are your raised beds, and how wide are your row centers for tomatoes? 🤔

      48 inch plastic, 24" wide beds, 5' centers on beds

    What's your fertilizer plan on your tomatoes pre- plant to harvest and do you figure your applied acres by the bed spacing or the width on the plastic bed? I've had a little bit of a problem with BER this year so I'm getting opinions and comparing.

      I'm not sure what BER is, but I use roughly 1000 lbs per acre of tobacco grade 8-16-24 per acre

      @@CherryHillFarm BER is just the acronym for Blossom End Rot. So you just use that 8-16-24 and the K Nitrate? No calcium nitrate or gypsum before laying plastic?

      @doublebranchfarms501 yes I run calcium nitrate alternating with Epsom salt every week from transplant till fruit-set. Plus I keep my ph up fairly high.

    What’s the flow rate of the drip tape you used ?

    What secret formula you use on your sweet corn, I agree about corn on plastic but my ears just aren’t big enough for me

      Same deal, at least 1 lb of N per day. In addition to 100-150 units up front preplant
