Default Re: need help growing tomatoes!

I am buying the seeds. I really don't think it is the soil, as I have used both potting soil and the little jiffy sprout things and it still happens. Its like they get top heavy--about the time they start to get leaves, they just break and fall over. I will try the TUMS. The ones I get at the store to fine-of course they are bigger. Mine do the break and die when they are about 2 1/2 inches tall. The store bought ones are more around 6 inches when I get them. I even thought about trying to make little collars to go around them....
