I know what you mean about a battle! Last year, I just couldn't give enough, just scrambling to find something else to feed them... humbug.
This time, the flakey dried chicken manure is coming around again, my two friends split a ton and one of them will sell me a couple of bags - it is way way cheaper than the stuff I got last year in pellets. So thank goodness.
Hope this year is great for you... you always have the best grow list of tomatoes!!
