Sometimes summer residents who have transplanted healthy and strong tomato seedlings into open ground notice that their leaves have acquired a purple tint.
An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explained that something like this can happen when the procedure was carried out at an inappropriate time for it – it was too cold outside.
If effective measures are not taken to save the plants, they will, unfortunately, die.
To provide support to frozen seedlings, you should use any growth stimulator - "Epin", "Zircon" and others will do.
However, this is not enough - after you have finished spraying, water the beds with future tomatoes with the preparation "Fitozont" or "Ribav-Extra".
The next step is to cover the tomatoes using spunbond. Please note: the covering material must be thick – its density should start from 60 g/sq. m.
After 3 days, organic matter should be added to the beds - for example, a solution prepared using the Biohumus product.
If the warm weather is in no hurry to return, all of the above steps will have to be repeated again in a week.
Another important point is that you shouldn't warm up the plants too quickly. Don't rush to remove their cover on the same day when the sun starts to warm up well.
