Veggie Gardening & Companion Plants, continued

Plants
If using seeds, start in small containers and once well rooted, transplant to a larger container. I find it easier to purchase a well established plant that has been taken care of from the garden center. You can try different veggies, but the ones listed here are the most ideally suited for container gardens: dwarf tomatoes (cherry, roma, etc.), peppers, onions, beans, lettuce, squash, radishes, cucumbers, cabbage, spinach, peas, cauliflower, broccoli, kale, greens and turnips.

Good Container Combinations
- Tomatoes, Marigolds, Curly Parsley and Oregano: Need a Cage
- Cucumbers, Borage, Marigolds: Need a Cage
- Spinach/Strawberry and Chives: Need a Cage
- Peppers, Basil, Oregano and Marjoram: Need a Cage

Tomato & Vegetable Products We Carry at Fairview:

Insect & Disease Control


Bonide Tomato & Vegetable 3-in-1

Three garden products in one. This product is a multi-purpose fungicide/insecticide/miticide. Kills eggs, larvae and adult stages of insects. Prevents fungal attacks of plant tissue as well as controls disease outbreaks. May be used right up to the day of harvest. Approved for organic growing.

 
 
Bonide Tomato Blossom Set Spray

This is a ready-to-use plant hormone that promotes blossom set and fruit development as well as increased fruit yield. Spray the blossom and surrounding foliage until the leaves are saturated. Repeat as new blossoms appear or at weekly or two week intervals. Tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, okra, melons, strawberries and grapes will often bear fruit earlier.

 
 
Bonide Rot-Stop

Don’t you hate it when your tomatoes are starting to ripen and all of a sudden the bottom of the tomatoes rot? Blossom end rot on tomatoes and other vegetables is caused by a calcium deficiency. To help control blossom end rot, apply Rot-Stop directly on developing fruit and foliage after periods of heavy rain or rapid growth.

 
 

Veggie Pharm

This is an organic insecticidal soap with organic garlic and peppermint oils. Use Veggie Pharm to treat powdery mildew, horticultural fungus and garden pests; it is an insecticide, miticide and fungicide all-in-one! This glycerin-based soap controls insects. The organic oils prevent fungal spores from traveling and maturing to disease.
 
  Fertilizers

Osmocote Vegetable and Flower
Slow released plant food. Guaranteed not to burn. Provides continuous feeding for up to four months. Special formula balances vigorous top growth with strong root development. Recommended for growing mouth-watering vegetables and hardy perennials.
 
 

Cockadoodle Doo

Cockadoodle Doo Super Premium Fertilizer is an organic, nutrient-rich fertilizer. It is highly effective and easy-to-use. 100% safe for children and pets.

 
 
Tomato Tone by Espoma

This is a complex blend of natural ingredients that provides all the nutrients your tomatoes require. Because the nutrients in Tomato Tone release slowly, it is very safe to use. Feed your tomatoes twice a month. No need to supplement with water soluble plant foods, because an overabundance of nitrogen will encourage the plant to over produce foliage at the expense of the fruit you want.
