If young plants suddenly fold their leaves and stems to the ground, it is time to urgently intervene and save the seedlings.

Seedlings often give summer residents a reason to be nervous. Even if the seedlings have sprouted and look strong, it is too early to rejoice.

The plant may suddenly begin to wither. It is not worth hoping that everything will correct itself. In order not to sow seedlings again, it is better to help the plants.

Most often, seedlings die due to black leg. The risk increases many times if the seeds were not treated before sowing.

The soil should also be watered with a remedy against pathogenic microorganisms. Then the chances of developing a fungal disease will be reduced to a minimum.
