Here’s what might be causing the issue:

  • The pots might be too small and the roots are running out of space.

  • The soil could be lacking nutrients or minerals.

So how can you help your tomato seedlings recover?

Step 1: Check the pot size
If the seedlings are still in small containers, transplant them into larger ones. Give their roots more room to grow!

Step 2: Improve the soil
Make sure the soil is nutrient-rich. A good mix should contain compost, deacidified peat, and either a mineral fertilizer or well-rotted manure (if the soil had time to rest).

Step 3: Fertilize carefully
If the seedlings have already been repotted (pricked out) and you’re sure the soil is good, feed them with a mild liquid fertilizer—but only if they truly lack nutrients. Be cautious not to overdo it!

Timing matters
Keep your tomatoes healthy until they can be planted out—usually after May 15th, depending on your climate.

Tip: Healthy soil is the foundation of strong plants! Rich in organic matter, moisture-retentive, and well-balanced with nutrients – this will benefit not only tomatoes but also most vegetables, flowers, and shrubs.
