new to gardening, need help for a tomato plant?

In addition to making sure it has plenty of water, fashion some temporary shade for the plant during the hot part of the afternoon. Plants can lose up to 99 percent of the water taken in by the roots though transpiration (evaporation from the leaves) on a hot day. Conserving that water is important when a plant is shocked or root damaged. Fertilizer at this point is unnecessary and may even be harmful.

just water it well also plant it deeper than it was at least four inches deeper. if you ever do it again trim the stem of leaves up to a foot or more. then lay the pot on its side for a couple of days so the end curls up then plant it so that most of the plant stem is buried, this is called trenching and will double or triple the root area as roots will form the entire length of the stem that is underground.

Just make sure it gets plenty of water and it will probably come back. Tomatoes are surprisingly tough plants.

Miracle Gro works extremely well to make tomatoes grow. Just make sure you follow the directions and dilute it enough or it will burn your plants. And don't fertilize it anymore once it starts producing tomatoes.

Put about a cup of Miracle Gro for Tomatoes on it, and again as often as the directions provide for. It's like Viagra for tomatoes, and if that doesn't perk it back up, nothing will.
