My tomato plants were frostbit about a week or two ago. Their leaves are mostly white. Will they recover or are they doomed?
Also I do have four tomato plants that are wilted looking with some yellowing leaves . what should I do for them? Thanks for your help.

Hi Jazzman,

How are your tomatoes doing now???

Yellowing can be caused by a lot of things. This site should help you out -

You're welcome, Jazzman! :)

Sometimes gardening just takes patience. Plants have a way of "healing" themselves--sometimes.

I'm happy to hear your tomatoes are doing fine. To be quite honest, if they were frostbitten, I thought they were goners, but didn't want to tell you that! :) Now you can start fertilizing them on a regular basis.

Happy gardening!
