No, youj put it on at exactly the right time. Now all you need to be doing in making sure that they are getting plenty of water. You want to add the nitro at that tassle start but not much after. You will know it was right because it will turn dark green and look like it grew a foot over night.
Yep, that's what happened! Funny thing how a garden changes from last season. Last season the corn was all stunted and the tomatoes were wonderful, big and the sweetest ever. This year the corn is huge and doing wonderfully, even after a bad start, and the tomatoes, though lush and green, have knotty little maters that are slow to ripen and not distinctive when they do! Both beds are side by side and have received the same soil amendments and water.....go figure!
