Yellowing (cherry) tomato leaves

[isabelbrinck]

I received this lovely cherry tomato plant a week ago.


I first re-potted it into a 6" container but then quickly moved it to its own 24" planter which I keep well watered and in a sunny location. The fruits are doing fine and I have enjoyed some yummy ones over the past days but I noticed some of the leaves are yellowing.

Any thoughts on why and how I can improve the plants health? I haven't fertilized it.

OMG that's a lot of fruit on such a small little plant.

Hope you get more info from other people.

maybe this site will help. It helped me figure out why my plants were yellowing and what to add to the soil.

good luck!!

I'd say it is feeling a bit stressed from having been repotted twice in one week with a full load of fruit on it. Possibly it has also been grown in a greenhouse and is trying to adjust to full sunlight. Make some tomato salad, pick off the yellow leaves and let it settle in.

Maybe it would be a good idea to pick some of the fruit off too, so the plant isn't struggling iwht both the adjustment and producing fruit.
