  • Whats wrong with my Tomato plant?

    Hi

    I have 16 tomato plants growing in my greenhouse in quadrgrow (self watering wicking pots) 15 of them look fantastic and are romping away but one does not look that good at all.

    Symptoms are discoloured outer edging on new growth, the outer edge then dies off and goes crispy, the lower leaves on the plant look healthy.

    They all get fed with the same nutrient solution that you put in the reservoir and none of the others are showing any deficiencies.

    I did give it a feed from the top with tomorite a couple of weeks ago and if anything it looks slightly better, the new growth has a better colour than a couple of weeks ago but still not right.

    Wondering whether I should take it out and destoy it? I do have a spare plant or two to take its place but seems a shame to throw away a plant with 5 trusses on.

    Those symptoms could be one of several things none of them very nice!!!

    If it were the odd leaf I would not worry to much but that looks to be general, if you have spares I would out it pronto and sterilise the container before replanting.

      Thanks

      Ive just outed it and replaced it, ive thrown the wick away and used a different pot and obviously new fresh soil

      I suppose thats one good about sowing too many, you always have a spare!
