Mick after you decide which potting soil to use you should order a jug of Texas Tomato Food. It has plenty of calcium and is balanced for tomatoes. I used it last year for the first time in my garden and also my container plants and they did better than ever before.

Hotrod, I wouldn't use Black Cow as the sole ingredient but it is okay as a supplement. It tends to pack and doesn't allow for good drainage and aeration. I have used it at the rate of about 10 to 20 per cent of a container mix with good results.
