What if the tomato turns yellow and leaves dry?

What are the reasons for the tomato seedling to get sick and what to do if the lower leaves turn yellow and dry at the tomato?

The main reason why the tomato seedling begins to turn yellow is a lack of lighting or an overabundance of moisture in the soil. To avoid such trouble, you need to remember some important landing rules. Soil, where growing seedlings should not be kept in a hydrated state. Water moderately and allow the soil to dry out.

If your seedlings still become yellow, it can still be saved. The first thing you need to do is transplant it into a new soil. Loosen the roots of each seedling from the old soil, carefully inspect that they are healthy (seedlings with yellow, black, rotten roots can not be saved). All healthy seedlings will be planted in a light and slightly moistened soil. Then each should be poured with a pink solution of potassium permanganate about 20 ml. Capacities with seedlings put on the most sunny place, after which carefully watch it. If the seedlings begin to fade in the light, this indicates that the roots were damaged during transplantation. In this case, for the first time seedlings should be shaded. But after your seedlings take root, moderate watering and excellent lighting are essential conditions for seedlings to develop well.
