We (my boyfriend and I), planted 6 to 7 seeds. They all shot right up...10 feet. They were bright and green a couple weeks ago, and we're waiting for the flowering to come. Now, the leaves are turning yellow and have a lot of brownish spots on them. The bottom leaves are falling out. We also planted some tomato plants in the same pot, (I know, mistake #1), we didn't think that ALL of them would thrive, so we planted a lot. After a few weeks, we thinned it out, so there isn't that many tomato plants. However, now the tomato plants are turning yellow, and it seems so short...only a foot or so in height. We do have good drainage, they're watered daily because the soil gets dry quickly, and we leave it in direct sun for more than 8 hours. There's good drainage. The soil is "Moisture Control" from Miracle-Gro (we had it left over from last year...and that could be the cause of 10 feet pole beans!). I read somewhere on here that the soil is supposed to be compost. But, I want to know why the leaves are very spotty. FYI - these plants are deck plants as we live in apartment. Thanks for any help!
