Common Tomato Problems

Tomato plants are dramatic. The good news: most problems are fixable with a few checks.

Leaves curling

  • often heat/wind stress
  • check watering consistency

Yellow leaves

  • older leaves yellow first (normal)
  • widespread yellowing can be nutrient or watering related

Spots on leaves

  • remove the worst leaves
  • improve airflow (spacing + pruning)
