Tomato: products indicated and the dose in each data sheet

Tomato is a long-cycle vegetable crop with staggered production: the same plant flowers, sets fruit, fills out and ripens at once in different trusses, over months. What decides the season is sustaining that rhythm without the plant's vigour eating into the fruit: after transplanting, rooting; afterwards, a continuous balance between the leaf that forms and the trusses that fill, with calcium and potassium at the centre of fruit quality. Under greenhouse and in the open field the irrigation, the temperature and the calendar change; the logic does not change: supplying at each stage what the plant asks for and, in intensive cultivation, doing so mostly through irrigation.

On this page we bring together the products in our catalogue whose data sheet names tomato in its list of crops. In the dose line, our data sheets do this in two ways: some write tomato by name within the list of vegetable crops, and most publish a dose for vegetable crops —alone, together with arable crops, or for fruit trees, vegetable crops and arable crops at once—, almost always with two routes, foliar and fertigation, and often with two regimes, maintenance and severe deficiency. Some data sheet names tomato but does not publish a dose for vegetable crops: in that row we write nothing and refer you to the data sheet.

The table has three columns: the product, linked to its data sheet; the family it belongs to; and the doses the data sheet indicates for vegetable crops. Each dose line starts with the use exactly as the data sheet writes it —the route, the regime and the crops it refers to— and ends with the quantity. The application timing is not in this table: each data sheet publishes it in its dose block, together with the precautions and the mixing incompatibilities, which are read before applying. We do not order the products by crop stage because our data sheets do not publish the dose by stage, and here we do not write what the data sheet does not say.

If the question on your holding is which of these data sheets fits the substrate or the soil, the water and the state of the tomato plant, the technical enquiry exists for that: we reply with the data sheet in hand.
