MY TOMATOES ARE DYING😭, what should I do🥹

I recently got a greenhouse and have 5 different veggies planted so far, AMA. However, I've realized that my tomatoes have been looking strange( a lil rough to be precise), so I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what the tomatoes might need?👀👀.

they are still seedlings 😭 so please give me some grace looking at the photo

Growing tomatoes in a greenhouse can be incredibly rewarding, but it also comes with its own unique challenges. If your tomato seedlings are looking rough or unhealthy, there are several common factors you should consider to help bring them back to life. First, check the watering routine. Tomato seedlings need consistent moisture but should not be waterlogged. Overwatering can cause root rot and yellowing leaves, while underwatering might make your plants look wilted or dry. Aim to keep the soil moist but well-drained. Next, pay attention to light and temperature. Greenhouses can sometimes become too hot or too bright for young seedlings. Tomatoes thrive in temperatures between 70-80°F during the day and slightly cooler at night. If it's too hot, consider providing some shade or ventilation to prevent heat stress. Nutrient deficiencies also cause tomato seedlings to look strange. Seedlings generally need a balanced, diluted fertilizer to support healthy growth. Look for signs of deficiencies like yellowing leaves (nitrogen deficiency) or purple hues (phosphorus deficiency), and adjust your fertilizing schedule accordingly. Another factor to inspect is pest or disease presence. Even in a greenhouse, pests like aphids or fungal diseases can affect tomato seedlings and cause rough or spotted leaves. Regularly inspect your plants for any signs of infestation and use organic remedies, such as neem oil or insecticidal soap, if necessary. Lastly, consider the planting medium. Seedlings need a loose, well-aerated soil mix that promotes root development. If the soil is too compact or poor in nutrients, this could stress your young tomato plants. By reviewing these aspects—watering, light, temperature, nutrients, pest control, and soil quality—you can diagnose what your tomato seedlings need and help them flourish in your greenhouse. Remember, seedlings are delicate, so patience and consistent care are key. Sharing your experiences and seeking community advice can also provide valuable insights when nurturing your crops.

What does your fertilizer schedule look like? Fish fertilizer is one of the best things you can use and adding in more calcium. You can also get a soil tester to check to make sure your soil is acidic enough for your tomatoes.
