Each trucker wants to grow a noble harvest of aubergines, to regulate his family with natural vegetables directly from the garden, and even make harvesting for the winter. For this, a seedling method is used. It is possible, of course, to acquire plants ready for planting, but it is only unknown how they were processed and whether it will bring harm to future fruits. But often we do not know what to do when growing eggplant seedlings , when plants twist the leaves.
These plants very well tolerate various uncomfortable conditions for them, but in the period when they are in the room, there may be problems when the leaves of the eggplant are twisted and they are pale. To help the seedlings overcome this disease, you need to identify its cause and eliminate it.
What is missing for the aubergines, if they are curled leaves?
Usually in an apartment, when the seedling stands on a well-lit windowsill about the lack of light, it does not go. Another thing is when the boxes with young seedlings are located in the back of the room, moreover, the windows of which go to the north.
In this case, the originator of the twisting of the leaves will be poor lighting. To correct the situation, you can place eggplants closer to the window, but the light should be scattered, so as not to cause wilting plants and burns on the leaves.
Eggplants can also lack water. If irrigation is irregular, and in addition to this, the soil is unsuitable and too loose, and water drains into the pallet, bypassing the root system, then the leaves from this can be twisted and the plant loses its elasticity. Sprinkle the seedlings of eggplant should be 2-3 times a week in small portions of standing water.
Less often, the eggplant lacks calcium in the soil and is poor in other microelements necessary for successful development, then calcium supplements are required.
Why else can the leaves of the eggplant curl? The answer is all in the same soil composition. If
The best seedling develops when it begins to take out to fresh air. Then the twisting of the leaves stops, because the conditions are similar to growing in the open ground.
If you find that the leaves of the eggplant have begun to curl, then tear off one and carefully examine its reverse surface. Seedlings are often struck by a spider mite, which is difficult to discern. If the enemy is found, then it will be necessary to process the plants from the invaders.
