The two Gardeners Delight plants have one small tomato each the size of a broadbean. No other fruit yet. Should I still use nitrogen rich feed or switch to tomorite?

No fruit yet from Moneymaker or Garden Pearl but they're flowering.

Ate my first Balconi yellow tomato yesterday, sown on 6th Feb:



Sorry the photo is a bit dark - they are on the spare room windowsill and it is very bright outside.

This is Shirley sown 13th Jan on the sitting room windowsill:



No sign of anything turning red yet.

You can stop using the nitrogen feed now,switch to tomorite or a high potassium feed for flowers & fruit,not long now!

My balconi red sowed Jan 15th is nearly red

He my not look great with his curly leaves, but he's very well behaved. No forking, very few side shoots and produces fruit like there's no tomorrow
