A lot of my new tomat seed looks like you can see on the photo. I have taken the feeds from last years tomat.
I have had aphids in the plants this year.
Hope someone can answer my question.
aAso here, it is the one in the middle.
The aphids are what is causing the tomato to wilt at the stem.Aphids feed from the stems .Re-pot in fresh soil to try to save them.
1st. When you transplant these, plant half of the stem. Additional roots will grow on the buried stem. We put epsom salt and asprin in the holes for transplants. Also use soap and water spray for aphids. Check out DIY insect sprays,, non chemical.
-- more light; horticultural soap for aphids on plants this young - I grow heritage tomatoes and have seeds from YEARS ago --- that's not a problem - if the seed germinates, you're good to go --
Go to Farmers Almanac.com there you will find any answer you need..From Transplanting to Planting..
If you smoke, the Tobacco Leaf Mosaic disease, will destroy your plants. So smokers should never touch tomato plants.
Put a piece of copp wire into the stalk
Unless these are from a heirloom tomato, you will not get a plant like the original.
Not worth growing from seed. You never know what you will get, and they will be prone to diseases, etc. :(
