Tomato help please
« on: June 15, 2009, 13:11 »
Hi all!

I have a number of tomatos in growbags, but I have noticed over the past week that with two of the plants in one bag, their leaves have all curled up  :(. I have now noticed that this is now starting to affect the other plants in the same bag.

Can you tell me what it is and if and how I can cure it?

I have only given one feed (the trusses have only just appeared) and have been watering regularly.

I have also just been out and noticed lots of little black flies on some of the plants. Could these be the problem? Although they're not on the plants with leaf curl.....

That's very interesting Jolly, thanks (though a little scientific in places for me  ::);)

I note it was from a website, please could you display a credit or link next time - otherwise we get into copyright issues (the website I found was in fact a marijuana website so I don't know whether the deficiency for tomatoes is the same in any event)
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
