Added by Mischka: TYLCV = Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus

It looks like I may be dealing with this virus again. I am noticing a more an abnormal upright growth pattern on most of my plants along with some leaf cupping as well as reduced leaf size. Much like what I noticed last year on the 5 plants that I ended up pulling. As they age a bit more the symptoms should be more dramatic so I guess I will know before too long. If so, I just dont know what to do anymore about those darned whiteflies. I am using sticky traps and inspect the plants daily. I havent noticed a ton of whiteflies but have noticed a few. I have also sprayed with pyola a couple times as well as insecticidal soap.
If I lose most of my plants to this again, I will be flat out devastated.
