I was given 3 tomato plants in pots, two of which already have small green fruit. The person who gave them to me was not the person who grew them, and couldn't tell me anything about caring for them.
We are very new to gardening. I had some tomato feed as I knew these plants were coming. The instructions said 15ml in 1.5 gal would feed 9 plants, so I divided by 3 and mixed 5ml with .5 gal. This was the instructions for indoor plants, so I poured the mix into the tray they'd come in and oh boy, is it full!
I am scared that if I leave the pots in the water-filled tray they will drown or rot or something. But if I take them out then they won't get their feed.
(The friend who grew them has gone abroad and I can't contact him for two weeks.)
