Tomatoville® Gardening Forums - View Single Post - drooping leaves and plant not as green, BUT still producing

dexygus · May 30, 2006

Hi Everyone,

Out of 8 tomato plants (OP and hybrid) that are all in raised beds, I have one plant, an early girl, that is looking pretty pathetic. The entire plant seems to be drooping, and turning a paler green. The leaves are curling under too. The fruits, however, are still forming and ripening.

My first thought was that maybe I'm overwatering, but since all my plants are watered with the same soaker hose, I don't think that's it.

Then I thought, well, maybe it's too hot for the Early Girl. But even in early morning conditions, it looks the same.

The only fertilizing I'm doing is foliar feeding with either seaweed extract or algoflash, and it's only every other week or so.

Any ideas?
