Growing Tomatoes

Tips for yellow tomatoes - fertilizers?

10 years ago

Hi there,

Found out that I'm a rare person that gets migraines from the acid in red tomatoes. So I'm raising yellow pear and globe tomatoes this year. I'm wondering what tips you have for watering or feeding/fertilizing yellow tomatoes to make them happy and delicious. I doubt they're any different from red tomatoes, but I thought I'd check and see what you all think!

You're right, treat them the same as reds.

I don't treat my yellows any different that
the reds/pinks/cherry etc. They all turn out fine with
the right watering and conditions.
