Default Grape Tomato Plants

I planted grape tomato plants on May 18th. They were small and can
three in a pack. They have been growing line wildfire and today I saw
there were those yellow flowers. Is that normal to see the yellow
flowers so quickly?


I/d day that would be a good sign.

Some growers wait until the flowers appear before fertilizing. You can side
dress each plant with a handful of 5-10-10 placed about 4" from the stem and
gently rake or hoe it into the soil. Tomats aren/t heavy feeders, so one
application will be good for the whole season.
