Transplanted Heirloom tomatoes- wilting
| | |
Posted by lonniegmusic NY (My Page) on Thu, Jun 26, 08 at 12:39
I just transplanted some heirloom tomato varieties to my garden...(mixture of compost and potting soil) and its been about 5 days. Their leaves are slightly wilted, drooping downward. Are they dying? Is there anything I can do? I water them once a day. in teh mid afternoon. Is this too little?
Types of Heirlooms purchased: Mortgage lifters, brandywines, zebras, and german somethings...
Please help! |

| You may be watering too much. Tomatoes like a good drink of water once or twice a week. Also watering in the morning is better (if you have to water overhead.) That way the leaves have time to dry making them less susceptible to disease. |
