You would need a Refractometer to take Brix (sugar) readings. Too expensive for the avg gardener. The fruit growers we work with all had one for field testing.
On the pH. When mixing Spray-N-Grow a water pH of 7.1 is best, slightly above…

When we got our boxes this year, they had fertilizer with them, (you have to buy it every year), and they said we had everything we needed, and not to add other fertilizer or it would burn the plants. We have two tomato plants per box, (like they…

What is dolomite, and where do I get it? I don't think to much water is the problem, because we have earth boxes, and the water wicks up from below. They only get water from the top when it rains, and we have only had short showers lately.

We have earth boxes with tomato plants, and they are growing great. We had tiny pink,fuzzy things, but the spray took care of them. Now I have black round spots on the bottom of the tomato's. What is that? Is that blossom end rot? I thought the…

Tomatoes
In about a month we’ll start planting our spring gardens here in South Texas and that means more talk about tomatoes. Tomatoes are the #1 plant here just like it is every place. We’ve spent a lot of research money growing tomatoes using Spray-N-Grow. These trials were conducted to imitate to how farmers would use Spray-N-Grow and they showed a yield increase of 50-60 % and increased sugar content (better taste). Home gardeners will do even better because they will apply more Spray-N-Grow to the… Continue

Looking forward to some much needed Rain!
There is a 50% chance of rain tomorrow and Wednesday, and that’s good news since we haven’t had a significant rain sine Aug 2008. However, it has been a good time to observe which local plants are holding up during a severe drought.
Driving around town I’ve noticed that Esperanza (Blue Bells) and Bougainvillea are remarkably drought tolerant. Plants that I know have not had any water are healthy and full of blooms. I think we will plant some around our new warehouse where water is… Continue
