An expert of the MOS SMI portal, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you why seedlings lose their appearance.

Lack of moisture

Tomatoes like moist soil, so if there is not enough of it, the condition of the plant may deteriorate.

To prevent unpleasant situations, it is better to add sufficient amount of water.

Nutrient deficiency

Tomatoes, like other plants, need additional feeding. If the soil contains a small amount of useful substances, the seedlings may begin to curl. To solve the problem, you need to buy special fertilizers.

Incorrect air temperature

High temperatures can harm plants, including tomatoes. That is why it is important to monitor the temperature. If it is a greenhouse, then you need to resort to ventilation.

Pests

Some pests can also cause the problem. To combat them, it is worth purchasing special means.

By learning about the possible causes of the problem, you can help your plants.
