If the top of the plants begins to curl, it is important not to ignore this moment, but to correctly establish the cause.
Many people associate this symptom with tomato diseases, but this is not the only possible option.
As a rule, this problem can often arise in greenhouses, reminds agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
Why do the tops of tomatoes curl in greenhouses?
The gardener overdid it with organic fertilizers
First of all, it is worth assessing the fact of how you prepared the soil for planting plants, and also remember what nutrients you added during the care process.
Most often, the tops curl up only because the gardener added too many organic components.
Humidity
This point needs to be carefully monitored, as high humidity in the greenhouse can provoke the development of diseases.
Therefore, try to maintain a comfortable level of humidity whenever possible.
Hot weather
It can be difficult to control the temperature in a greenhouse. But it is worth remembering that tomatoes do not tolerate hot weather very well.
If you notice that the tops have started to curl, this means that the temperature has started to have its negative effect.
Therefore, you can simply help the vegetables adapt to the heat. To do this, plants are sprayed with a special solution consisting of water (10 l) and urea (large spoon).
