| Some of my tomatoes got hit by herbicide damage around a month ago, and although most of my tomatoes seem to be recovered my isis candy tomatoes have not. Even with the damage the plant is still growing like crazy. It has grown very tall, though the leaves are still very deformed and the flowers just fall off. I've read that tomato plants can outgrow herbicide damage as long as it survives. Is this always true or should I just pull the affected tomato plants that aren't showing any signs of recovery? Thanks for any help :) I can post a picture after I get off work. |

| If it has been a month and it still hasn't recovered any new normal growth then yes, I would pull it. The odds of recovery vary depending on the type of herbicide and the degree of exposure. So no, not all plants will recover. Dave |

| Thanks for the info. They have been removed. |
