Lol... No, but I am the type that will leave an injured animal in the
wild alone and let nature take it's course. That is the way I was
raised. But I think Friedrich would approve.

In this case, the tomatoes have every reason to live well, prosper, and
yield lots of tasty fruits for me :-)

If' they are still alive but struggling by Saturday, I will help them.
