help i think i just killed my tomato plant! i am a first time grower and thought nipping out meant cutting off the side branches of the main branch to help the growth of tomatoes. But now i understand this is not the case! however i do have alot of flowers on my plant! will it survive! and is there anything i can do to save it?!
I have leaves starting to grow from the ends of the tomato trusses. The plants are healthy and the fruit is setting. I have nipped off these leaves, but does anyone know why this happens?
I have a greenhouse and have problems with cucumber. The leaves have gradually turned white and the plant collapses. i have tomateoes as well but they are doing very well. Help.
i was given a few tomato seedlings w/c thrived well in my garden; but i'd like to propagate it from the seeds. should i dry the seeds in the sun or plant them straight from the fruit?
i have a 15x10 outside garden with cucumber,tomatoes,cantaloupes,bellpepper strawberries sweet potatoes.most are from seeds some from plants,planted in late march.every is growing fine got lots of cucumbers and tomatoes in may and now the tomatoes are dying.its over a 100degrees here since june i water everyday for about a hour.why are my tomatoes dying please help
I`ve been told not to pinch out sideshoots from Gardeners Delight because it is a bush plant. So I`ve left them...having 2nd thoughts..any ideas please???
I have tried growing cucumbers for the last 2 years with no success. The leaves get gradually paler until the plant completely failes, I regularly feed with tomato feed. What am I doing wrong?
I have had great success with my tomatoes "sweet million"(first time grower).I have a polycarbonate small greenhouse and they are in growbags. I wanted to try the ring culture system but couldn't find it so just cut the bottom off some plant pots and pushed in to the bags. I planted marigolds in pots by the door and have so far had no pests at all. I was confused by pinching out initially, my dad advised me to pretty much strip off all the non flowering branches which seemed a bit ruthless so I did the side shoots plus a few branches.Now I have"millions" of toamatoes and they are starting to turn red i have taken off a lot of the lower branches as it was getting crowded and the leaves were turning yellow. My main concern is watering, i am doing it every evening when hot and every other when damp but the top of the compost is green and mossy. I open the door and window every day. Really don't want the tomotoes to be ruined through bad watering...any foolproof way of correct watering, what about a moisture meter?
