Tomatoes Alive!®
More vigorous, delicious tomatoes, bell peppers, and eggplants
If you want to grow healthier, more delicious tomatoes, then we created this Tomatoes Alive!® plant food formula especially for you. In our research garden trials, use of this fertilizer with our tomato plants produced 150% more tomatoes by weight! Two easy applications provide nutrients tomatoes need for vigorous growth, heavier yields, and more delicious, juicy tomatoes. Plus, this fertilizer is full of secondary nutrients like calcium (essential for cell wall structure) and magnesium (essential for photosynthesis). One week after setting out transplant, or when seeded plants are 4-6" tall, scratch 2 tablespoons of Tomatoes Alive! into the soil around the base of the plants. But it's not just for tomatoes; it also works great with bell peppers and eggplants, which require similar nutrients.
