Fertilisers for Tomatoes from Departmental Pamphlet
The pamphlet notes tomatoes need phosphoric acid and identifies superphosphate as best for root development and feeding capacity though it may hasten maturity. It advises applying 23 to 30 cwt per acre pre planting, up to 5 cwt under irrigation, or a mix of 24 cwt superphosphate with 24 cwt bone dust for sandy soil. Nitrogenous fertilisers are valuable but should be used with caution after first fruits set.
