As a first time potted vegetable "farmer" this season, I've done quite a few things wrong. But that's how we learn, right!? Your channel has been unbelievably comprehensive and informative. What I haven't come across yet though, is how much fertilizer do you use per juvenile plant in 4in pots and again for mature plants in their permanent pot? And how often do you recommend fertilizing?
Thanks for helping all of us n00bs out!

Spot on. Soil testing is key and can save a lot of money. And a combo of granular, foliar, and limited use of synthetics. That is the road to the best yields.

[SpiceyKy]

Thank you so much. Now I see where I went wrong last season. You rock!
