More leaves less fruit then?

What would the ideal nitrogen level for tomatoes?

Also, do you have an opinion of Miracle-Gro Original for salad greens like spinach, mesclun, etc.? For onions?

I use a very mild organic fert. for my tomatoes it has a 3-4-6 ratio. When I transplanted them I added this to the hole and mixed it in with the soil. Then I added some to the surface soil also. I also used a little fish emmulsion, diluted, to water them in.

The 3-4-6 fert. is called Tomato-Tone by Espoma. The only place I have found it is at my local County Co-Op.
