Tomato Patio in a 5 gallon fabric pot

Very moderate dose of blood & bone meal, Tomato tone, gypsum granules..

All Tomatos in containers look Great, just this one. What's up with the Curly Leafs??

Are you watering every day? Are there drainage holes in the bottom of the pots?

Haven't watered since the Heavy Rains. The whole pot is a drainage hole, leeches water from everywhere. Roots are supposed too Air Prune in EM

1 of my varities
looked like that
after using
Miracle Grow
it looks to be coming back

Leaf curl like that is probably potassium deficiency, Miracle Grow is the quickest fix.

So you give the tomato plant Reese's?

Had just added water soluable Fetri Lome 9-58-8 before the rains

Starting too Wonder if this plant ain't liking the Fabric Pot

Doesn't looking concerning Mag. Keep in mind growing in pots/sacks you're leaching out nutrients with every watering/rain and those need to be replaced. In pots blood/bone meal is meh at best. I'd find a decent 20-20-20 water soluble product like Jacks or even Miricale Gro. Divide their monthly app rate by 4 and add that to weekly waterings. Get a cheap gallon pump sprayer would be a good idea and pickup a Cal/Mag product to spray foliar every couple weeks. You can add MG or others to foliar sprays. Just watch the temps come summer and be careful with spray times. 9-58-8 is a crazy ratio. Keep N/P/K somewhat balanced. Nitrogen is the driver. Keep P/k more balanced to it as needed.

Thanks Derek


I actually have a new bottle of Cal Mag. The Ferti Lome been collecting dust for years, has a picture of tomatoes on it, so I used it

I'll hunt down some MG tomato food or blossom booster later today

Nothing wrong with what you're doing. If the Cal/Mag is Nitrate be careful with it. It can be a little spicy as all nitrates can be. Tip. Add a pinch of citric acid to your hand cannon waterings.

Spider Mites was the Problem!

Nice. What was your go to treatment?

Quite Savage DDT straight into thrashaway bin for this one!

Its place done got replaced with a Super Sweet 100

Sprayed it with Captain Jacks Deadbug, gonna whip up some Castille soap & peppermint oil and start treating the other plants...
