2015 Tomato Growing

(Sorry to change the subject, but I've order some aphid eaters for my greenhouse. Some of the tomato varieties seem particularly tasty to greenfly and I've tried squashing every day and tried a spray, but still have an infestation.)

To be honest it's not well ventilated. I've installed an automatic vent but because I'm probably putting the house on the market later this year, I've not invested more in the greenhouse.

 

Is it normal that the leaves curve down like this? I fear it is having some problem

 

So long as that's not wilting it's OK. Some varieties do have downwards pointing leaves.

What variety is it?

If it's an interminate=vine=cordon variety then you should probably restrict it to just the top shoot and pinch out those side shoots, but check which type of variety it is first (the determinate=bush types give you a higher yield with sideshoots, but that one doesn't look like it is).

 

Thanks Cinnamon. It is a Sungold. I will remove the sideshoots when they are a little larger, so that I can get hold of them. I have fat fingers :D

 

Still far too cold here to plant outdoor tomatoes, it went down to 4.1 deg C at 04:20 BST this morning. Tuesday next week looks like the earliest they might start going out.

 

Thanks John

 

Please help! My tomato leaves are like this. I found it just now. Is it disease? What do I need to do?

I only fed them once. About a week or so ago, with general purpose liquid feed and seaweed liquid.
