It Just Works
I have used Miracle grow for 3 decades. Started using it because my parents used it in their gardens when we were kids. It just works. Used as directed, my plants are more healthy, full, and I never worry about my fruit contaminated with poisons.

    My tomato plants were rapidly losing their leaves which is a strong sign of mineral deficiency. Home Depot offered 3 pounds of much needed fertilizer at an affordable price (cheapest online). Once delivered, free to my door, my plants sprouted joyfully, once again. Thank you Home Depot for helping me to save my plants and for saving money, too.

    I use this plant food every year to feed my tomatoes. It makes a significant difference. Creates green and healthy growth and I get lots of tomatoes. A must for my cherry tomato plants.

    Great product
    I’ve been using this for a few years. And the last couple years my plants have gotten 6 feet plus tall. And loaded with tomato’s. But I have moved my garden around this year and I hope I get the same turn out. I e been told to rotate your plants. So we will see.

      Great price. It comes in 3-1 pound sealed bags inside. It's not 3 pounds of loose fertilizer granules like I had thought. Very glad as moisture doesn't get to it before I use it. The fertilizer itself does a good job promoting plant growth. I agitate the water as I'm filling the container to make sure all the granules dissolve. That's the only draw back to this fertilizer.

        This product works well, but dont use too often as this fertilizer is very high in nitrogen which causes plant growth, not necessarily producing higher yields. Works great when using in conjunction with tomato tone which supports higher yields.

        Item arrived fairly quickly and in good condition. Although it's way too soon to determine whether this package of Miracle-Gro is effective, I've used this product previously on many occasions so have no reason to believe it will be any different. Miracle-Gro's "All Purpose" water soluble fertilizer has way too much Nitrogen to truly be all purpose. This "Tomato Plant Food" is really more appropriate for all purpose use unless you just want an abundance of foliage (leaves) and no fruit/vegetables. I wish it were available in larger sizes like the so called "All Purpose" variety.

        I fed this to my vegetable garden at the recommended dose level when prepping the soil and again when things were beginning to produce their crop. It seems to have worked well as my garden is very productive and quite a jungle. I don't know if it would have done that without this food but I wasn't willing to chance it this summer in the middle of a pandemic.

        I had very poor soil and couldn't get tomatoes to grow until I started using the Miracle Gro. Now I have beautiful plants with lots of buds and small tomatoes. Looking forward to the next few weeks when I will be able to harvest my tomatoes

        It's very difficult to dissolve in water.
        Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I spend a few hours trying to get the dry food to totally dissolve in my tap water. Every 5-10 minutes, I shake the gallon jugs of water I've poured 1 TBSP of food into... and after s few hours I give up and water with what I have. Every time I shake the jugs I see bits of undissolved food in the bottom. But, despite less than desirable planting conditions, my balcony tomato plants are covered in healthy green tomatoes! I honestly think the food is getting a lot!

            Needs Calcium
            Was disappointed to learn this formula does not contain calcium - essential to prevent blossom root. All calcium and you'd have a great product. Will have to look elsewhere. And yeah - I know about all those other tips about preventing blossom rot. That's done. And my plants still need calcium.

              Good growth and best harvests
              I've been using this with shake and feed with my tomatoes and other vegetables (all in containers) for a few years now. I get outstanding growth with plenty of blooms and fruits. Vast improvement over my father in laws unfed vegetables. This combo never has burned my plants when used as directed. Also, all are planted in miracle grow potting soil. OUTSTANDING RESULTS!

                Works great
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first year I've used Miracle Grow plant food for Tomatoes and my plants are the healthiest looking ever. Lots of flowers, so I'm expecting lots of great tomatoes.

                  IT DOES WHAT IT SAYS IT'S GOING TO DO.
                  GROWING TOMATO'S IN THE HEAT AND INTENSE SUN IN THE SUMMER, IN FLORIDA, IS VERY DIFFICULT. THE LEAVES TURN YELLOW FROM WATERING HEAVY. WITH THE TOMATO PLANT FOOD THE PLANTS ARE SO ROBUST AND LUSH LOOKING. MY MECHANIC ASKED ME LAST WEEK ABOUT GROWING TOMATO'S AFTER HE SAW MY PLANTS. I PASSED ON MY RECOMMENDATION...TOMATO PLANT FOOD AND LOTS OF WATER AND SUN.
