Hi all, sorry no pic but I have some tomato seedlings I grew from seed, which really don't look happy. I potted them up last weekend into bigger pots and since then, although the weather has warmed up and I've put them in the greenhouse during the day, they have kind of drooped. I also bought a few from a garden centre and they also don't look great so its not an issue with the compost. I guess I may have over/under watered but seems unlikely as I've grown tomatoes for a few years and I've never had any problems. All I can think of, which would apply to both mine and the garden centre ones is that due to the general lack of sunshine and cool weather this year they are just struggling to get going.

Any thoughts? Guess its too late to sow more...

Hard to tell without a pic and without knowing where you live (hint for your location to be added to your profile!) but it's possible it's just too hot in the greenhouse given the milder weather and bursts of sunshine some of us have been getting this week. Obviously neither over nor underwatering are helpful either.

A spell back in the more even temperatures of the house might help them, but even if they don't recover it's not too late to sow some more now.

Thanks, yes its possible. I assumed they'd be craving some warmth and sunshine but maybe too much in the last week

Thanks for the tip and I've updated my profile now

Possibly the temperature is the problem I think its just a tad to early yet most garden centres work on the premise the first plants will not  prosper and so will make a profit on the second lot . so I would sow a new batch now they will catch up and be better plants
