Everybody here has their favorites!... and it seems as if I've tried them all!
For tomatoes, I use Fox Farm's grow big for seedlings through vegetative growth stage:
Once it starts to flower, I switch to IONIC Bloom plus a supplement of Kool Bloom:
You also need to supplement tomatoes with extra calcium and magnesium to control blossom end rot.
Most people use CAL-MAG.
===== Lately I've been trying the product offerings of RAW. They offer soluable powder individual nutrients. I'm able to more easily control each specific nutrient with these products. Don't know yet if that would be of any value though.

That's my 2 cents. As I said, everybody has their own favorites! If all of our fellow addicts add their 2 cents, you will soon be a rich man!

I use AG nutrients supplemented from week 6 on by CalMag and Koolbloom. I buy the large jugs of AG nutrients on sale.

I used the Masterblend Tomato & Vegetable formula (with the Epsom salt and calcium nitrate) on my Vivacious tomatoes.
