A cold spring disrupts the plans of many summer residents , but sometimes the situation acquires other, more unpleasant consequences. For example, the gardeners had overgrown tomatoes, and they hurried to plant them in the open ground. But the sudden cold snap damaged the tomatoes.

Many summer residents believe that it will not be possible to fix the situation. But experienced gardeners know that there are always chances.

Details

First of all, they look at the condition of tomatoes. If they managed to take root and gain green mass, the probability of resurrection is very high.

If the plants were planted and frost hit at night, the chances are low. But even here you can try to save the plantings.

In case of damage by frost, cut the tomato under the stump slightly above the soil level and continue care.

As a rule, 80% of tomatoes will give new shoots from the root. Yes, tomatoes will be a little behind in development, by 5-6 days. But then those bushes that did not undergo “temperature massacre” will catch up.
