Post by: oubykh on May 28, 2005, 12:21:16
as i am having very limited success with my tomatoes, i'm concerned that the tips of the leaves on one are browning now. what does this indicate?
its only 10" tall at moment in sunny spot but unheated shed.

Have a look at this site:  http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/tomatoproblemsolver/index.html   (http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/tomatoproblemsolver/index.html )  for problems with tomatoes.

Not sure if I posted the link correctly...

This won't help much, but it will keep you occupied!

weel mine may be a bit puny and sad looking but at least they dont look that bad!!

In my wifes 'monty' book he suggests it may be a reaction to changes in temperature in an unheated area.

sunny spot but unheated shed.

just a thought? if the sun is shinning in through the window/glass it just may be scorch marks?
said it was just and idea, mine have been hardening off the last 10 days and hopefull potted up in large pots for outside the kitchen window.  Next the ones for the lottie its all go.
