Fertilizer treatment boosts yields in early crop tests
Michigan State College researchers led by Dr. R. L. Carolus and Herman Tiessen report that applying a fertilizer solution at planting greatly increases yields for the Valiant tomato and early cauliflower and celery varieties. One-half pint per plant with 10-52-17 per gallon raises tomato yields. cauliflower heads gain about 10 percent weight with 20-5-20 in water. celery shows 30-40 percent more weight with 10-52-17 at two ounces per gallon. Midseason Long Red declines.
