I made a mistake with my measuring and consequently over-fertilised my
tomatoes and aubergines.
Should I not fertilise again this season, or would it be okay to begin
fertilising again (paying better attention to the instructions this

time)?

You would do better not to fertilise again unless you think the plants
are showing some signs of needing it.


Thanks, Alan. Would yellowing of leaves be a symptom of over-fertilisation?
The leaves on my Tumbler tomatoes have turned completely bright yellow, but
they haven't dropped off, and have no other markings. There are lots of
flowers and some small green tomatoes on the plant. I wasn't sure if the
yellow leaves were too much fertiliser, too much water or too much heat.

Thanks.
