Thanks. I've learned my lesson trying to fertilize them last year. The soil is so rich that they can't take any chemical ferts at all without burning.

Most of the plants are determinates, but I am pruning them to 2-3 main stems at this point. I want them up off the ground and also to maintain decent airflow around the plants. When I let them grow unpruned, I get unruly hedges.
