| I am a new gardener. I planted 5 tomato plants of different indeterminate varieties. I was very impressed to see that four of the 5 have grown rapidly over the past three weeks. However one, the Porter Improved, has barely grown. It had some yellow leaves last week. I fertilized last week as well, using Miracle Gro Organic Choice All Purpose Vegetable food, and the yellow appears to be gone today. Can anyone think of a reason why one plant out of the five is doing so much worse? They are all in the same vegetable bed, same amount of water etc. Thanks for the help. |

| The clue is in your question. You planted different varieties, and different varieties grow at different rates and have a preference for different climates. The Porter is supposed to grow well in hotter weather. That could be the reason why you are seeing different results. |

| Good idea! Maybe it will perk up when the weather heats up a bit more. |

| You have two posts with the exact same question. So people are answering here without seeing the photos on the other post. I would let this one go and just refer people to your other post on this forum. |
