Something has eaten the tops (2 tiny leaves) off my tomato seedlings, on my screened-in patio. Will the bare stem continue to grow? Can I spray them with a repellent? Thanks. Linda

Yes the tomato will continue to grow. Look close to see if you see worms on it, if so pick them off. You may spray them with soap & water. Mix 1 teaspoon of liquid dish soap in a quart spray bottle full of water from Dollar store. Once a week should help, also search for"how to grow tomato"online, good luck.
Thanks for the spray formula. I'll use it on the new seedlings, but the leaf-less sproutings did not survive. I've been growing tomatoes for 10 years much more successfully in NJ.
