Bicarb.

Whats the difference between Bicarbonate of soda, baking soda & baking powder.
I've heard that if it's sprinkled on the soil before watering it will make my growing tomatoes taste sweeter.

Bicarbonate of soda and baking soda are the same thing. Its called bicarb in the UK and baking soda in the US. Baking powder is a mixture of bicarb (alkali) and cream of tartar (acid) plus a filler to keep it dry. When it gets wet the acid makes the bicarb work faster and more completely. I don't think any of them will sweeten tomatoes. Use a good tomato fertiliser.
