I have plants that are 8 feet tall and still putting buds on, no blight, no yellow leaves. One plant, a volunteer, is rooted between a driveway and a gravel bed, has 6 major stalks and has already produced well over 100 sungolds with no sign of letting up yet. That plant got only top / side dressing.

Others went in the ground at one farm with a mix of the Tone, compost cow manure and a little side dressing of Espoma Tomato Tone every two weeks and one of those was so heavy with fruit it cracked at the base but still has no signs of weakness.

Worth every bit of the $15 and I still have 80% of that bag for next year.

Thanks!
