  • Anyone use Seaweed solution seen white leaves?

    I noticed that the leaves under some chillies/tomatoes and some peas and beans have some whitening on the leaves. Some are under a cloche and green house amd some have been kicking around outside, the last thing I have used was a liquid seaweed spray over the foliage. This hasnt happened on any plants imdoors.

    Sounds like they got sunburn to me,do they look like ..............






    Leaf burn

    Seedlings grown indoors or in greenhouses aren't used to the sun's harsh UV rays. Believe it or not, the seedlings will get sunburn.


    Leaf sunburn looks like silvery patches, which soon turn crisp. The plant suffers because of the loss of leaves. It will recover, but your harvest will be delayed.

    Always harden off seedlings before planting outside. The general pattern is a 1/2 hour of direct sunlight per day for 2 days, then 1 hour for 2 days, then 1 1/2 hours for 2 days, etc., until you reach a full day.

    It takes about two weeks to harden off a seedling.

      That looks like it! My peas and beans have been growing nicely for almost a month outside. I'll bring in the worst ones and let them recover

          Would you recommend popping some water on the leaves in doors and leaving in a semi sunny position?

            Thats likely to make the situation worse.

            Water from the bottom keep warm and light and keep your fingers crossed.
