Tomatos plant ill?
4 Attachment(s)
Hello all,
I've got two plants in an Earthtainer that, to my untrained eye, are slowly succumbing to something. The rest of the garden is okay. Please take a look at the photos and let me know. For some background... This has been an unusually rainy and cool spring and summer. |
I get the crispy leaf tips too. But the plants seem fine so I haven't done anything about it, except to pick them off when they start to show chlorosis as in your first pic.
The plant in the last pic looks wilty. |
Tip burn on the leaves could be caused by a number of things. environmental stress like high winds and cool temperatures. How unseasonably cool is it in Ottawa?
Over fertilization could be another cause. The plant look OK otherwise. |
Thanks. I think we are not too far from record rains for May and June and perhaps a few degrees cooler than normal. It's still raining a lot, but warmer, but still cooler than normal.
Not overfertilized, I think, because I only put down a strip. I didn't mix fertilizer with the soil medium. A lot of dropped flowers, by the way. |
Gray mold seems to like cool moist weather. Hope you get some breezy dry sunshine.
