    Hi Folks,

    I'm new to all things gardening and have a question regarding my tomato plants.

    In the past day or two I have noticed the stems of the plants having a purple coloration. This is after their first feed with Tomorite. All three plants have this. The leaves don't seem to be affected at all.

    Any ideas what this could be?

    :ThankYou:

    I think you might be worrying too much.
    Sometimes parts of a tom plant do show purple.
    But at this time of the year, if they are still growing ok, I would not worry.
