Default Re: Towards an optimal Tomato food

Is there a good resource or equation I may use to determine the amount of potash supplement to use? For my lemons, I purchased the only potash supplement my store has, which is 0-0-60. At your recommendation, I want to add some to balance out the nitrogen and phosphate in the proportions you had recommended and also for my tomato plants. I also have a test kit so I will be able to check existing levels (at least in the ballpark) to know where I am starting from. Thanks for your help!

By the way, as an answer to your comment from the other post, I have been surprised how many people either don't measure fertilizer or think "more is better" so that is why the low percentage fertilizers are preferred to keep people from burning the roots of their plants.
