Q.Newly Planted Tomatoes, Then Medium Rain, Now Some Leaves White Around Edges.

Zone Saginaw Mi, 48604 | Anonymous added on June 7, 2026 | Answered

I mixed in soil, banna peels, powdered egg shells, small amount fertilizer, and small amount powder milk. It rained 2 days later no more than medium rain, plants stood tall in rain, looked great next day. Now, 2 days later, some leaves have white on edging. Is this shock, or what? What can I do?

It could be sun scorch. Provide some afternoon shade with a shade cloth or other sun blocking material till the tomato plants have acclimated to the bright light.
