Dice,

I will set it up that way. As we do not get rain here from May until October, no concern about anything leaching down into the water reservoir from runoff. My only concern is that I had planned on using TomatoTone as the standard control fertilizer, and that has something like 5% calcium.

Can you suggest an alternate fertilizer that does not contain calcium. Also, thanks for the "dispensation" to not put my Purple Haze plants at risk, and will use tomatoes that are on my "B List" for some of the more riskier experiments.
