Tomato leaves

[ashymark]

Hi all, not sure what this is on my tomato leaves.

Have hopefully attached a pic, the middle plant, some of the top leaves on it have started to change to a beige sort of colour. Wondering if any of you know what it is and whether there is anything I can do about it.

tut tut, naughty boy got water on them in the sun I think.



They'll grow out of it btw.

I get this every now and again, amongst other things. I just pick them off and give them a seaweed feed.

Actually, now you say it, the pots don't look very deep and you haven't filled them up enough with compost? And there is two per pot. I think you've squashed them a bit tbh, not that that is causing this problem though (I think)

[zazen999]

You're right - get more soil in them [to about 10 mm from the top].

Its been constant rain and sun here lately. Would that explain it?

I have had a read up on here and saw that some people had said that 30cms would be ok for a final pot for them. Those ones are 40 just to be on the safe side. Is that fine?

[ashymark]

Right, i'll top up the pot with more soil when I get back over to them.

Cheers

Yes, we've got the same here, I've got some plants that look something like that.

Had some doubts about them. I thought it might have been too cold for them during the night still so I have brought them indoors as I'm not going to be back over there again until tomorrow now. They have had a good water today anyway, had thunder and lightning earlier.

Can sit by the back door and get a little bit of the light that comes in through the door. Won't do them any harm bringing them in I don't imagine.

What should I do about those few leaves? Will they be ok just left on the plant or are they best taken off?

[womble]

Leave em on. Bring them in at night if it's too cold and put them out in the morning.
Protect them from this wind as well, it's a real killer.

[ashymark]

Right ok. Thanks very much for the advice

And stop worrying!
