Hi folks, I have a tomatoe plant in a 17" pot. I have been watering it with
about 1 gallon of water 2 times a week, one watering I add Miracle Grow
Tomatoe Plant food.


Seems like too much water to me, but if you are in this hot spell
around New England, perhaps not (sorry, I am weak on U.S.
geography). If they develop Blossom End Rot then cut back on the
water for sure.

I agree with the other poster and would cut back on the
fertiliser to no more than once a month.
