Re: Gardening....

Hmm...how often are you watering them? Maybe you're overwatering?

Re: Gardening....

dont use the miracle grow everyday and don't let it touch the plant itself. Sometimes too much miracle grow will burn the roots. Also if they are still babies don't given them too much direct sunlight, it will burn the leaves.

Are they inside? If not, maybe it's too cold at night for them. I usual don't plant my tomatoes until June.

No, I have them out on the deck, I read something that said it was okay to plant after mother's day. Should I bring them in, maybe put them on the landing by the sliding glass door, they would still get some sun thru it?
