We just pass on information, others figure this stuff out first. lol I measure what goes in, and I also have a soil stab that I use more for flowers like Geraniums. You will water very often, largely we control our issues with that. The farmer who has thousands of acres cannot do that, he uses different blends of N to control pH with his fertilizer. We have tomatoes in containers from March to late October and they are mostly same consistent if you leach out a tiny bit. It's a long season in a container and we are not seeing much drift.

Keep us posted on your results, enjoy the season.
