When you have a flat face, like Floyd, it can be hard to pick things up on the floor. Case in point…the cherry tomato!!

Question by jojo90126: why are my tomatoes on tomato plants turning yellow?
And why are my leafs on my pumpkin, cantaloupe and cucumber turning yellow? The only plants that do not have yellow leafs are watermelon, carrots, and my tomato plants. i have 3 different spots in my garden where i have planted tomato plants. Only one of my tomato plants which are the “Cherry Tomatoes” (i think thats what they are called) have yellow bloom type things. Any help counts please and thank you

If your TOMATOES, as opposed to the tomato LEAVES are turning yellow, then they are probably a type of tomato that is yellow. Where did you get the seeds or plants from? If the plants were purchased, they could easily have been mislabeled. Yellow cherry tomatoes, or yellow pear tomatoes are common these days.
As to the yellow leaves on other plants (and tomato, too) – that can come from many causes, the most likely being either too much or too little water… probably too much, as both the watermelon and carrots need or can use lots of water… and if you have well-drained soil, the tomato plants can handle it, too.
See the link for another poster’s comprehensive list of alternate causes of yellow leaves and how to address them.

The blooms on all tomato plants are yellow and then the tomato itself will turn from green to red or yellow when it is ripe. If the green leaves are not wilted which would indicate lack of water, the plant may have to much water for it’s kind of plant or it may also be that the soil does not have the proper nutrients for that plant while it may be correct for other plants. The only way to find out is to take soil samples of the various spots in your garden and have them tested so you can make the needed corrections.
