I've put it down to either low quality compost or perhaps I've over-watered them, so they've rotted

Grow Your Own / Tomato seedlings turned pale yellow??
« Last post by Hampshire Hog on Today at 10:07 »Good morning all.
I have grown some outdoor tomatoes from seed and have been gradually acclimatising them to the outdoors whilst keeping them indoors overnight. Whilst I am getting close to planting them up in buckets I’m concerned by their colour. They seem to have gone from a healthy green to a pale yellow. I’m wondering whether they are worth saving or if I need to buy some new plants from a garden centre. Appreciate any thoughts.

« Last post by Lardman on Today at 09:50 »OH NO!, start cutting down on carbs, slowlyI knew Id become a little more soft and doughy but that's a lot extra. An unfortunate product of poor portion control, now that I don't do anything physical anymore I should stop eating for a family of 4
Having said that, it's Friday, so a few oven chips tonight
, mushies and beans and whatever I can find in the freezer to go with them. 18

« Last post by Goosegirl on Today at 09:35 »Good shoes are very important. Go to an old-fashioned shoe shop like I have in Lancaster and they should have some decent and lasting ones, plus they should be able to give you some advice too. They don't always cost mega-bucks either. Ask them if they do any in pink!
