I only have 2 plants left, the third one seems to have been eaten by a deer. I have sprayed more animal repellent and surround the remaining 2 plants with rocks. Since that last check I have noticed my plants have been attacked by bugs, I have now sprayed them with insecticide and fungicide for tomatoes, I hope to get a turnaround.
honestly those plants, even if they do make it, arent going to produce much.
Here is what you should do, if you have any more seeds, veg them indoors till they are at least 6 inches tall. Then move them outdoors.
When you move them take a shovel and dig a hole that is at least 1 and a half feet deep by 1 and a half feet wide. Fill this with what ever soil you are using and make sure it is at least 30-50% perlite. Plant your babies in these holes about 4-5 feet apart. Right when you plant them spray them with the pesticides and make sure you get them good, them surround your plants with chicken wire.
DO NOT USE FISH FERTILIZER! this attracts raccoons, which will have no problems climbing the chicken wire. These raccoons will dig up your plants thinking there is a golden ticket at the bottom of the hole.
Those plants you have are to stretched and will not produce anything worth while.
If you dont have any seeds buy them from attitude (as they only take about 5-10 days to get to your house) make sure they are outdoors and are hardy, fast growing plants.
keep those plants but stop spraying them with pesticides and cover them with chicken wire too. Those already eaten ones will lure the slugs/other bugs that are eating away your leaves.
The reason your plants are stretching is for light, and the reason you have tiny leaves is because your roots are having trouble growing through the soil.
As jorge cervantes would say "theres probably a lot of clay in your soil"
HOPE THIS HELP!
