Default Re: Fertilizing?

Sean, I try to remember to fertilize every month but some months I forget. Sometimes I buy a granulated fertilizer and other times I use Miracle Grow for Tomatoes (it has higher amounts of potassium). I also top dress with composted cow manure and they really seem to respond to that. Lastly, I throw all my banana peels around the root zone and let them rot into the soil (this usually only takes a couple days in this heat!).
