How wide is the pot at the top, and how tall is it? Is there a dish under
the pot? If YES, is it the kind that's attached with little plastic tabs? If
YES, can you see whether there's standing water in it? Is the soil damp,
moist, or soaked?

A couple of weeks ago I planted out my tomato plants into containers on
a south facing patio. Now I've noticed one of the plants is wilting. It
seems to recover if moved into shade. It's ok for water.
Anyone an idea what could cause this. I've read about virus's causing
wilting, but usually its describing the symptoms at a later stage in
the plants growth. The plant is only about 30cm tall, and I've used
fresh compost from the garden center, although the cheapest 'compost' I
could buy.
Thanks, Alan.
