Also, do you use different kinds/ratios for different parts of the growing season? And if so, when and what?
I'm just curious how other people go about it. I'm still trying to figure everything out.
Thanks!

I use only organic fertilizer so the numbers aren't important. But on what I use it is 4-3-2

I don't put toxic cancer causing poison on my garden either 15-15-15 is a more concentrated form of organic.

I don't use fertilizer on my tomatoes or any of my veggies. the gardens are rich in compost and at least I know whats in my soil.

I start with 4:3;2 chicken manure, which also contains 9% calcium, supplemented with 0:0:1 woodash, which contains minerals and 0:0:1 seaweed which contains alginates which help with water regulation and further minerals..
In order to further help ripen the tomatoes, I use 5:0;!0 comfrey tea, which I grow and brew myself.
