  • Tomato virus?

    Hi all, have just noticed that a fair few of our tomato seedlings have a problem. Some have curled lower leaves others have leaves with 'dimples/nobbles' on then. They look relatively healthy besides that, but is this just the beginnings of something bad?

    It doesn’t look like a virus to me. Were the plants sitting in water for a long time? The leaf nodules are to do with water I think. Leaves folding like that shows the plants not happy about something,maybe the pots are too small,the width of the plant wants to expand? Try potting one on & it should stop leaf folding.

      They are in reasonable size modules, but it's possible the compost is quite a water retaining one. I'll keep and eye on them, and let them dry out a bit too.
