What is wrong with my tomato plants? I'm stumped.

10 years ago

Hi folks. Can you help me figure out what's wrong with my tomato plants?? Three of the four have these problems. They're planted in separate, very deep containers. Symptoms:

* On older leaves: Brown edges bleeding into yellow.
* Stems turning yellow and falling off.
* Young leaves are small and weak.
* Plant is growing very slowly.
* Some of the flowers are shriveling and turning brown.
* The ripening tomatoes have yellow tops.

I've attached a picture of one of the leaves. Please help. This is driving me nuts.
