Best fertilizer to use during the season?
Right now I have 10-10-10 synthetic that I have used only a couple times. What do you use during the season and how often. All of mine are fruiting well. Thanks.

Ricknc,
hello. If your current fertilizer is working well then you may want to stay with it.
When my plants are beginning to bloom I switch to a fert with less nitrogen and more phosphorus and potassium. This will slow down leaf growth and keep them focused on blooming. I love a beautiful tomato plant but I love one loaded with tomatoes even more.
I've heard "Tomato-Tone" is a good all purpose fert but I haven't used it.
Totally Tomatoes.com carries it.
Good luck.
