Title: Scorched greenhouse plant leaves
Post by: kt. on April 13, 2011, 13:24:48
All my tomato and cucumber plants have very dry and burnt leaves from the recent warm weather with some a rust brown colour. The plants do have green on them but some have up to 30% dried scorched leaves that feel brittle and about ready to crumble.  Will these plants recover or do I need to buy some plants in; as it is too late to sow more seed?

The tomatoes will bounce back, not sure about the Cucs. If they still look rough take "cuttings" from the first side shoots... further developed than a new sowing.  :)
