Bridgette,> I'm not sure of your feeding schedule, but probably?you are on
week 5?...however,? right now you want a bigger middle number..like 10-50-10,
if you're doing chemical fertilizers...for roots...then move to a bigger first
number (leaves)?and then after you have set fruit a bigger end number?
(fruit).? I normally do a little bit of 10-50-10 mixed in with my
Fish/Seaweed....then move to all Fish/Seaweed and Compost Tea later in the
season...also I don't put much on during setting of the fruit.> Hope this
