That happened to my tomatoes this year.  Some of the plants have recovered and are vigorous, some others did not survive.

I think with mine it was due to too long under indoor grow lights and then trying to get them growing suddenly in full daylight. (Your mileage may vary! :D)

If it is snapped off below the seed leaves it's done for. Above seed leaves but below the true leaves, likely done for, but some hope.  Above sets of true leaves, there is a much better shot at the plant recovering.

John is working very hard to get the balance right, so please be patient with him.  It’s not an easy job  :)

We've spent hours on it so far. Every time I remove from one section they are popping up in another. Google did a big update/change and so many sites have been hit badly. Even large ones such as the Daily Mail, who will have their own dedicated staff to handle it, are unable to sort out the new AI placements and swamping.

For now I've removed all ads from the main chat sections landing page and removed another chunk of sections within topics and posts. Now to see what the new AI ad monsters decide I need to fix tomorrow!

I put the last of my tomatoes out today. Stupice, noire de Crimee, Costolutto Fiorentino. Also the sweetcorn and cobra beans. You have to let them out into the world at some point 🤞

This is my first year growing cucumbers after my husband bought some plug plants. One of them came with the top half snapped off. May be a dumb question but will it still grow or have I lost the growing point?

Planted out a courgette plant I've had in the cold frame. Planted some peas out that were in modules in the cold frame too. Found a packet of pumpkin seeds so sowed them in pots and placed in the empty space that the peas and courgette left. Went over the grass areas with the push mower

Grow Your Own / Magpies eating slugclear?!
« Last post by Marijke Jones on Today at 13:59 »
Dear fellow gardeners,

The battle against the slugs and snails has begin again. I cleared the last of bushes away which was a damp shelter for them and put all I found in a bucket and killed them. I put slugclear granules around the most affected veggies but a few days ago I saw that magpies are picking up the white granules and eat them? Am I missing something here? Anyone else had this issue?

Grow Your Own / Theory on Flea Beetles
« Last post by InWarwickshire on Today at 13:42 »
I`ve done a lot of searches but cannot find how the FB finds its food source.
FB`s can fly,jump and walk.
If we assume the search by scent then I`m wondering whether my theory may work.
A couple years ago my plot neighbour ask me If  I could smell that `foul smell`. It was coming from my Comfrey `juice`. This morning I was decanting a batch and some got on my hands. After washing them later I needed to wash a couple more times
So, could a comfrey dousing deter the said FB,methinks?
Not sure whether to douse the plant leaves or carefully dribble next to.
