My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Tomato leaf turning yellow

13 years ago

Hi I'm really new at this. Decided to plant vegetables for the first time and I've started from seeds. My tomatoes are beginning to worry me . They have started to turn yellow. On some it 's also the real leaves turning yellow. I started on small cells with starter mix. I have no lights on them. I placed them on top of the fridge. Once they spouted, I repotted into 8.5 cups, using organic potting mix. Then I repotted some into 160z cups using the same mix. For light, I placed them by my glass deck door but its not the south side of my house. It's the east side of the house. I try to water only when they feel dry. What can I do to help them? I'm thinking they need more light.
