By far, the best all-around fertilizer that I have found for just about ANYTHING that sets a fruit or a vegetable is a granular 10-18-10.

You will find a bag of it in the Grass Seed section of your local garden center or hardware store.

Apply and work into your bed prior to planting. Read the package for rates.

I use it on my fruit trees and small fruits, tomatoes, peppers - anything that sets a fruit or a vegetable. It’s awesome stuff, and since it is designed for lawn care, it’s gentle and won’t ‘burn’ anything.

Just my 2-cents. :)

Thanks, but while that can work for the plant, i read that it is not as good for the soil as organic fer. as per my referenced source.
