tomato leave curl

4 years ago

Hello, I stated my tomato plants from seed indoors. I am having an issue with leaf curl already. I am growing them under a good plant light. The temperature is at about 69*f and 62% humidity. I have a fan running on the seedlings to give them movement. Can anyone give me pointers on what I’m doing wrong? I have grown these this way for many years. Thanks for any suggestions.

What is the pink barrier around them?

That is a reflective barrier to keep the light in at all angles. I also have it there so we don’t get blinded by the light.

I will check out that link. Thanks.
