transplanted in the heat and cherry tomato plants are wilting.
After transplanting a full grown tomato plant, what tonic can i use to get rid of wilting?
HUM... try fish emulsion, but make sure the plants aren't wilting because of a viral infection.
Put them in the shade, until they recover, and mist the leaves often. A cool fabric will give them some shade until they look good again
Reply:put the plant in shade. then give it lots of water every day until it starts to look better
Reply:Try Miracle Gro. It is known to help reduce shock to plants being transplanted. In this case, I would use Miracle Gro for Tomatoes.
Reply:It is best to plant in the evening or when it's cloudy.
The heat stresses the plant and wilting occurs.
Normally it's best to harden them off before transplanting - slowly adjust them to the elements starting at 1 hour of sun and then the next day 2 hours - or whatever they can tolerate until well adjusted.
There are transplant fertilizers to reduce transplant shock which include B vitamins....also make sure they have alot of water to stay hydrated during the transplant shock and heat - at nite or in the morning, they will have adjusted so there is no worry.
Keep watered well and they will adjust - tomatoes are strong growers.
Reply:you should water it then put some miracle gro on the tomato plant.
Reply:You might have lost the plant because you disturbed the root system where it gets its nutrition . TRY giving it some shade somehow( a patio umbrella ,) dig a moat around the plant so that the dirt is mounded up all around the plant and water until the ground will not except any more water . You will need to do this for several days if it lives Good luck
