I have 18-19-30 tomato food from schulz that i am using on my big max plant. It says that i can use it every time i water (i tsp per gallon of water) or that i could use it once a week with a 1/4 cup of it. Which would be better, Once a week or every time i water?

For what you're doing I'd say it really doesn't matter. If you have sandy soil I'd say everytime you water (as long as its more than once a week). If your growing A.G.'s with a season ahead of you I'd say double the dose to 2 and water with it everytime...........G
