Tomato question
« on: June 03, 2011, 23:36 »
Can anyone tell me why the top leaves of my tomato plants curl up, please
It only happens to the ones in the greenhouse, and they are not like it all the time. They seem healthy otherwise (so far!) The plants outside are fine.
If I am doing something to upset them I would like to put it right! This is my first year of growing anything in the greenhouse.

Thanks

Elaine

This is an oft asked question.

Provided that your leaves are green and not otherwise distorted, it's nothng to worry about, and is in fact a sign of a healthy plant.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

It's popped up a few times, but unless you're specifically looking for it, you'd probably skip over the post.

John mentions it here, about 2/3 rds of the way down the page:
