Tomato Plant Leaf Reddening

Many of my tomato plants are showing some red coloring on the bottom of their leaves and in the stalks. I've been reading that this indicates a phosphorous deficiency. I planned all along to add rock phosphate to my garden (to give the plants phosphorous). I had figured that the compost in the soil I used for these plants would have enough nutrients until then. It seems that I am wrong, so I'm giving the plants a little liquid fertilizer now.
