Basil brown edges of leaves and dying. Hi, I grow a lot of basil indoors in my office in Ireland. I had one plant and I have grown many more from cuttings. Recently, the basil has started dying. The leaves become brown around the edges, then die. I have used potassium fertiliser on them very recently (I thought potassium deficiency might be the problem) and I have also used some strong stuff to get rid of green flys: dimethoate, it says on the label.
The tomatoes varieties that existed when tomatoes were first cultivated were yellow or orange. Through breeding, the standard color of tomato plant varieties is now red. While red may be the predominate color among tomatoes now, that doesnât mean that there arenât other colors of tomatoes available. Letâs look at a few.
How Far Apart to Plant Tomato Plants. Plants should be about 3 feet apart when tomato planting with cages. Staking only requires about 2 feet between plants. Loosely tie the plants to their stakes as they grow, but set the stakes when you set the seedlings.efore we talk about how to plant a tomato, letâs talk about what to look for before planting. Tomato plants should be straight and sturdy and six to eight inches high. They should have 4-6 true leaves. Those six cell packs will transplant just as well as the individually grown tomato.
