[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 1151066, member: 16552"] It's hard to tell for certain with the pepper plants and the larger tomato, but the tomato plant that is still alive looks like a disease issue. Everything else in the garden looks too healthy for it to be an excess water issue. Can you get a close-up of the leaves and stems? This may help as well if it's easier than taking pics: [url]http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/vegetable/problem-solvers/tomato-problem-solver/leaves/[/url] If it's a disease issue, you may encounter the same problem with replacements since it's now going to be in the soil, and may have been there before you planted. You might hedge your bet by putting a couple plants in containers as well as the ground.
