Fertilizers used were Hidrogroup and Greentonik while polybag size are 30x30 cm , 30x40 cm and 40x40 cm . The design of this study using Complete Randomized Design ( CRD) with 3 replications . The result showed that this research affect to the vegetative phase . No interaction between type of nutrition and polybag size on plant height , leaf number, stem diameter, number of flowers , flowering time of tomato . Type of nutrition significantly affect plant height , leaf number , stem diameter, flower number and wet and dry weight of stems and leaves , whereas the size of polybags significantly affects in the number of leaves , wet and dry weight of stems and leaves of tomato .
