I will say this once again. From personal experience - I have been using Miracle-Gro for at least 15 years and have always had awesome results. The grow from my grow journal was done with Miracle-Gro tomato plant food and bloom booster. (tomatoes and MJ have a lot of similarities). I use it on my veggies, and if you would like I will post pictures of the MONSTER tomatoes, cantaloupe, Zucchinni, and egg plant I have growing now. They are some of the biggest plants I've ever grown. Miracle-Gro is cheap and works perfectly. It's the SOIL that you grow them in. I grow everything, including my veggies in a mixture of 5 parts topsoil, and 5 parts manure. Shoot it every once in a while with a little unsulfured molasses and Miracle-Gro at the recommended rate and you are good to go.
