This has been my best year with tomatoes ever. Of course, it's only the second time I've tried to grow anything...so that's not saying much.

That being said, I've been browsing DG for information on tomatoes and container plants in general and am concerned b/c I can't find dolomite anywhere locally. Almost every tomato thread mentions this needed additive, but no one seems to carry it. Right now I'm using Miracle Grow all purpose fertilizer...but is this enough? I've noticed that a few flowers are dying off without leaving a fruit behind and my plant isn't as fruitful as it's supposed to be. It's a bush cherry variety...something 100 I think...but I've only got about 7-8 fruit right now. Can someone take a look and tell me if all is well?
