It is important to understand that healthy tomato seedlings should always look perfect.
In this case, we can safely assume that the harvest will be good.
If the leaves are drying up, it is worth immediately finding out the reasons, says landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
What are the main reasons?
Poor quality soil
If you simply took soil from a plot or saved money when buying soil, there is always a risk of getting a low-quality base. Such soil may simply lack nutrients.
The soil may also become acidic.
Compact fit
Of course, everyone wants to grow as many seedlings as possible in order to harvest the corresponding crop. But in this case, it is worth understanding that it will be extremely difficult for young plants to develop adequately.
Therefore, as the seedlings grow, it is worth replanting them, carrying out a thinning procedure.
Air quality
It is important to remember that tomatoes like fairly humid air, but dryness leads to problems in development. Tomatoes also do not like too high a temperature.
Therefore, it is extremely important to monitor these factors.
