Why? I've read some articles about feeding tomatoes calcium nitrate, and I've also read articles that indicate that excess nitrogen is bad for productivity. Excess calcium is only necessary if there has been a lot of rain or overwatering, in order cure or prevent blossom end rot. I would recommend a balanced fertilizer 10-10-10 or 20-20-20. If you only use calcium nitrate, you're only getting the 1st number. Phosphorus and Potassium are also important.
