Default Tomato feed

Hi,
I bought organic one (Fito- for fruit and vgetables)but I wonder if this one is good. When should I feed my tomatoes ( they are not flowering yet?!) They are leggy and short but still alive and doing better since Ive moved them on a sunnier place. Is it too late for them to produce anything this year?
Thanks.

Dina

My tomato food instructions say to start as soon as the trusses have pea
sized tomatoes.

I think if you feed them too early the first truss will be at ceiling
height!

I use tomorite and feed them weekly when the first truss appears, then every
second watering once the other trusses have set.
The plants are now 4.6ft and all have 3 trusses, some of them 4
